Not read message indicators problem.

Post by Gimi »

I have a strange problem with the BB that started 2 days ago. Whenever I close down my browser after having visited the forum all the posts in the forum are set to read on my account regardless of whether I have read them or not.

Using Firefox 3.05. Anyone else have this problem.

It's always done that for me, and it's somewhat annoying... :twisted: :roll:

ditto what Thargoid says - I use IE6, IE7, FF2, FF3 and Opera on the Wii and it does it on all of them

Ok, so not alone. The strange thing is that for me it started just a few days ago. Everything fine before that. I installed some extensions to Firefox just before, but I took those out but problem prevails. I also tried Opera, and the problem is there as well.

Was always so for me, as well. Also if I log out and log in again later, all the 'unread' flags are gone.

OTOH sometimes it takes two, three, or even four times of opening a thread and returning to the forum, until the 'unread' flag disappears.

It's just annoying in general, and definitely doesn't work as it's supposed to. :?
