I just got into the boards today and started with the GQ board, first. Nevertheless, all boards are marked as ‘You last visited: Today at 06:43 PM’ which was only true for GQ.

Just letting your guys know.

It’s all one board. The one board has several forums. You only have one last-visited time.

You only log on once. Which you apparently did at 6:43 PM.

Yes, thank you, I misdescribed the problem. I do know that it is only a single board with multiple forums. How I should have described it is:  
I first checked GQ and it showed that the last time I visited was yesterday.  
I then went to GD and it showed that the last time I visited was at 6:43 TODAY (the time I logged in) and that same time showed as the ‘last visited’ in all of the other forums I visited. The result is, of course, that only threads started or updated since 6:43 are shown as unread.

Same here, it’s been a few weeks since the Unread Posts were accurate in my User CP. Maybe the Ad-Blocker messes w/ it? I just don’t rely on it anymore.
