Last-read post lagging way behind

When you click the note to go to the last post read, it'll take you to a post farther back in the thread. Except I've already read the thread. It seems to be quite far behind.

I can go to my User Panel and click threads I've replied in, but it'll still take me to 2 pages back.

I already know this is stored server side, so no, browser caches won't help me here.

edit: for example, the RB2 thread "last read post" link continually brings me back to this post:

http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?p=7983474#post7983474

even though I've refreshed the page a bajillion times.

and this post in the tbk thread:

http://forums.penny-arcade.com/showthread.php?p=7983481#post7983481

even though i've read the rest (and replied to the thread after that)


stuck here in the GoW2 thread for me:

    And I can verify it's not a cached User Panel, because I can read the rest of the post, it'll disappear, and when someone replies it'll reappear, but still take me back to the stuck post.

    So it seems like the marking of threads read is still working, just not the last post.

    Works fine for me. What browser are you using?

    It caught up sometime last night.

    It doesn't matter what browser you use. The last read post is stored server-side.

    This happened to me a couple of times tonight. I assumed it might've been because I haven't been online the past couple of days, but maybe not.

    It seems to happen around mid-day, central US time. I got a DB error the other day.

    are you using google chrome

    because google chrome does this a lot

    as much as you might say "it has nothing to do with the browser"

    I've had this happen at least 20 seperate times on google chrome yet never had it happen with firefox

    Chrome doesn't go to the post that gets linked to for me, it goes down a few so I have to scroll up. I think that's something different to what he's getting though.
