    I just started seeing this in SE++ and D&D earlier this afternoon (about an hour ago or so). Every thread is showing the blue light as though I had at one time clicked on it (which I definitely haven't). I'm on a Win7 machine using Firefox 72.0.2 (32-bit).

    [Edit]
    A quick check shows that all threads in G&T are doing this as well, but it's only nearly every thread in Moe's subforum. This forum (Tube's Circus) also only has most all threads marked as read, regardless of having clicked on them in the past.

    Also threads you've just posted in have the same issue.

    Looks like everything got marked as read to me - same thing is happening to me.

    I've done it accidentally before, marked a whole subforum as read. One thing of note that I'll point out - if you click into one of those threads that you've previously never read, it will likely just take you to the first post, and then from there on out you'll see the unread number as 2.1k new or whatever.

    did your accidental mark as read track number of new posts? This seems to very specifically show them as 1 new post even if board movement would dictate they've had more than one new post since The Event.

    Interestingly, I got this just now in G&T and SE++ but not D&D.

    i'm seeing 1 new post in threads i've never read and the, i assume because it's varied, correct number of new posts in threads i have read

    Allegedly a voice of reason.

    Same.

    But, you know, maybe don't fix this one. It's a really nice bit of micro-nostalgia for the rad post I just made.

    As a weird side note/addendum to this, ever since this started happening I've had the forums register my own posts as new posts.

    Like, if I go into a thread, read it to the end, and click back out, it will be marked as read. But if I make a post at the end of that, when I go back to the main page the thread will be listed as having one new post.

    I don't know if that's helpful information or anything, just something I noticed that seems to be related.

    There's always some user with an edge case claiming a bug is a feature.

    I got the same problem but only with one thread. The marvel thread in se++. All other threads I read (which I think we're all older) behaved normally.

    Additional info: I tried clearing my cookies & cache to resolve this issue, and it's still showing up for that thread (https://forums.penny-arcade.com/discussion/234730/tinker-tailor-soldier-movie). Feels like it's specific to new threads created after a certain point in time.

    Me too. But only on the new thread I have bookmarked. In my case, the new Star Wars discussion thread in D&D.

    Other threads are ok, excepting that whenever I make post, its counted as a new, unread post for me. Which has been reported before, I believe.

    For me this bug is manifesting itself as my own posts not being marked as read when I made them. For example, I make a post in the cars thread. I see the post in the thread. I navigate back to the forum list. I check the cars thread and it shows 1 unread message. I open the cars thread and the unread message is the post I just made. I jump back to the forum list and check the cars thread. It shows no unread messages.

    It's the strangest thing.

    For me, it's affecting the D&D Star Wars thread:

    To be fair, there are worse things in life than constantly experiencing Han Solo. But, the #latest link always takes me to the bottom of the first post, and the whole thread remains marked as "unread."

    Yeah I don't think the issue is with recently made threads. The movie thread in se++ isn't giving me that issue but I'm still having the problem with the PC and marvel threads.

    It's still acting weird to me.

    The affected threads still show up as completely unread, until I post in them at which point they become read... until someone else posts in them and it becomes 100% unread again.

    The Job thread in SE++ just got created, and is being weird with the count of read posts
    It now shows that all the posts are new, and clicking on the title to go to the latest, it goes to the first post in the thread. After clicking in and out a few times, it still shows as though all the posts are brand new and unread, even though there are no new posts.

  • Undead ScottsmanUndead Scottsman Cybertronian Paranormal Eliminator Registered User regular
    Wair, I think it's fixed. Aside from the one thread I can't think I'd anything to post in yet. It's still fully unread no matter how many times I read it.
