StarDew Posted January 24, 2008 Share Posted January 24, 2008 (edited) As I read thru a forum and have about 3 or 4 threads left to read, I hit return to Hell and all of a sudden what I just read (and was showing as being read) changes back to the bright color indicating there are some new unread replies. I go into the thread and realize that I have already read the thread and nothing is new. Anyone having this problem? Any idea why this is happening. I keep losing track of what I read and haven't yet read. I have read the older thread and guess I should've just re-opened it...sorry...b4 anyone says anything, I have the problem whether I hit refresh or not...I use F5 so much I am surprised it is still working on my keyboard...IE is current and hasn't been modified lately...btw...this post can be merged into the other thread...doesn't seem like it got resolved Edited January 25, 2008 by StarDew Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DevilMinder Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I am never able to duplicate this, and the Invision forums dont have anyone reporting similiar issues that I can find. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarDew Posted January 26, 2008 Author Share Posted January 26, 2008 Thnx DM...I am going to be more watchful of when it happens, date/time and exactly what was I doing just before it happened...maybe if I can collect enough data we can re-create the issue...watch...now it won't happen just like when you have a squeak in a car and when it gets to the mechanic the sqeak disappears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RowdyFan42 Posted January 26, 2008 Share Posted January 26, 2008 I browse the boards differently than you do, but I have noticed that if I forget to hit the "Mark All Posts As Read" link when I'm done (so that the threads I'm not interested in don't show up again), sometimes the ones I did read don't get marked as read.

StarDew Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 It happened again Jan. 28 however I kept track of this: I was in Hell and heard something on the TV that made no sense at approx 12:55P. I opened a tab and did a search RE: tv tidbit. I was in the 2nd tab more than 5 minutes. When I returned to forum at 1:05 all the threads that I had read were marked as not read. I know because I only had 3 threads left to read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarDew Posted January 29, 2008 Author Share Posted January 29, 2008 Under the same conditions that I had in previous post, I have had it happen 2 more times...one when I was perusing the link abt TFP and again when I was reading another link...it only took 7 and 5 min respectively to recreate the reverting to show as not read. This all happened between 8:15P and 8:40P Jan 28. I will keep posting anymore info on these circumstances...if I can recreate it under different conditions I will add that to the thread also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarDew Posted January 30, 2008 Author Share Posted January 30, 2008 Now it is wierd...I start reading my thread oldest to newest...I got to the very 1st and felt I was all done but nooooooooooooooo....as I scroll everything and I mean everything I read was marked as not read...I wonder if the refresh rate of the forum has anything to do with this mystery It is now 1:45P Jan 30...I have been in the forums about 15 minutes.
