Has anyone else noticed this ...

In the past, after reading an entry, a reload of the page reverted it to 'read'

Lately, after reading one or more entries, the only way I can show it as read, is on the main forum page at the bottom--'mark forums read', and that clears everything.

I wonder if anything has changed in the forum program.

Its always been this way for me. A glitch in the forum software Im sure.

Up until a while ago, it worked fine for me.

Knowing that someone else sees it helps restore my illusion of sanity.:rolleyes:

Maybe you've been drinking too much corporate Kool Aid like that "other web site" suggested.....:p

Id suggest to the admins Simple Machine Forums but I think changing over would be quite a new learning experience for them. Not sure they could restore the posts in a new product either.

Nope your only as crazy as you arrived here as, and no more. :eek::D

IIRC, the original forum ran Simple Machines. I'm not sure why they changed to vBulletin.
