Community Constructive Feedback: Viewable Only By Select Important Members

Kind of a weird issue, but hope I can explain it well.

So when you press on a topic title from the threads’ list it takes you your the latest unread post which is great.

However, let’s say that multiple pages worth of posts piled up since you last checked a thread. And let’s say you only read until the bottom of the page you’re on. Then you leave the thread before reading the rest either by closing the tab, or using the shortcut to go back to the the threads’ list, etc. Well, the system will still register every single post in that thread as read, and the next time you press on the topic title it will skip ahead to the newest post even if you actually have several pages of unread posts which is annoying since now you have to mentally remember which posts you didn’t read.

Hope that makes sense.

I’m almost certain places like GAF, Ree, and even OG bore lmao work the way I’m describing.

Basically, if the last post I read was on page 23, and when I clicked on the topic again it had already reached page 27. If I only read until the bottom of page 23 and then close the tab, the next time I come back and click it should take me to page 24, not the latest post on page 27.

Like I’ve using forums for 20 years at this point, I really doubt that I’ve been imagining that behavior this whole time lol. In fact, some forums actually track what posts you scrolled on and not just by page.

Anyways, it’s not a big deal, but a nice QoL thing to look into.

Also, lick my taint, cauli

This is literally how it just worked for me on OG Bore in their US politics thread. The new posts extended to a new page, but I didn’t notice. When I went back to the threads list the “new” button was still there.

Also fix this already benji you fucking cunt. I’m not crazy that’s how all forums work
