Forum Bug?

Caine, I'm almost certain it's a local problem. Make sure your browser's caching is set to always refresh from the network each time a page is viewed.

I don't do that, because I want the Cache for other sites. However, whenever I come back to the forums, the first thing I do is a manual refresh, thus updating the Cache and display.

For instance - I just went back and did another manual refresh, and it's still showing 3 new Posts in the "Atlantis Replacement Needed" thread. And having just read the Cho-Ku-No mod thread, I again refresh and ... It still says there are 3 new unread articles there.

Up until a couple days ago, this wasn't the case - I'd open a few threads, read them in their windows, close them, go back to the main page and update to see what else was unread (or if something new had been posted while I read the threads).

Edit: This seems to confirm my hypothethis that it's something in the forum software. After posting this, I do a refresh. It definately refreshes - the thread is now shown as having (4) unread/new Posts where before it was 3 (but should now be 0), and it correctly shows me as the most recent poster. It isn't a Cache issue.
