Bookmarks now sorted oldest *created* thread first?

Steelhawk

Just noticed it now, myself. Meaning I didn't really check the forums yesterday to at least lurk? Wierd.

Chrome. Both on PC and Android.

Richy

My bookmarks are mis-sorted too. Windows 10, Chrome.

The only work around I've found is just having to open you bookmarks page and clicking last at the bottom to see the most recent ones.

You can also open the subforum and click on the thread(s) you want to read. Like a savage.

Indeed. Quite the unfortunate combination of bugs.

Geth must have integrated some reaper code.

What I'm saying is the quarians are to blame, as usual.

Jedoc

If it's easier to let us hide threads on the recent threads page than it is to fix the bookmark bug, that would actually be super fantastic.

Fishman

The oldest thread I have bookmarked is titled 'strip clubs'.

Every time I hit the My Bookmarks page, top of the list, every time, I am confronted with 'strip clubs'. Open the list, 'strip clubs'. Go to the Bookmark page, 'strip clubs'. Top of the page, over and over again, eyes drawn to it like exposed flesh under a cheap spotlight.

Now, being an SE++ thread from 2008, there's probably only a tenuous connection between the title and the content, but still...

The first thread I've bookmarked (that I haven't unmarked back then) is a 2010-12 thread dedicated to the unfortunate SF x Tekken.

It's been quite a blast going down memory lane with these. It's a little like visiting Geocities ruins.

Commander Zoom

for me, it's Achewood Appreciation.
I appreciate this.

Drovek

Mine is an Ace Combat thread from 2008 that is still the active G&T Ace Combat Thread.

'Unfortunate' is carrying a lot of water, there.

Doesn't that only hit of you don't have bookmarks for that subforum? It hasn't happened to me at all. Maybe just throw in some bookmarks so that you have literally anything.

I don't really want to go around thoroughly testing it, but just having bookmarks in the subforum isn't enough. I have that and it still happens.

I hope they haven't just given up on this bug like the YouTube one that's been around for months now.

minor incident

I doubt anyone gets paid enough to give a fuck about our screwed up bookmarks on forums dot Penny dash arcade dot com on the weekend.

At least, I hope no one is working on fixing it right now.

Morninglord

I have pretty much adapted to scanning for new. But I only have two pages.

Please dont take this as an endorsment of not wanting it fixed.

Gabriel_Pitt

Phew, I thought it was just me. I'm not alone in my suffering.

initiatefailure

I didn’t realize how addicted I have become to the [strike]water[/strike] bookmarks. It’s kind of a pain to just scroll threads, like what am I, interested in a broad range of fascinating topics?!

Glal

I'm now playing the weird self mind game of "3 threads are marked Unread, which one do I prioritise, because I'll inevitably forget what the other two were by the time I finish reading the first one?"

Two clicks? What am I, made of fingers?

Middle click does it in one.

edit: For another middle click time saver because you have ADHD and every microsecond counts, you can middle click a tab to kill it without needing to aim for the X.
