It used to be that threads with new posts would be in bold. After reading the new posts, they’d go non-bold (is there a word for normal font?), and then, if there was no activity, they would disappear from the list.

Now when I check a thread, they stay bold. The newer ones still go to the top of the list, but without the switch from bold to non-bold, it can be hard to tell if I’ve checked the thread or not. Bold threads will suddenly disappear b/c of inactivity, but there’s no warning… It’s becoming pretty annoying (and it shows how addicted I am the dope ~\_~)

Does that make sense? Is this affecting anyone else? FTR, I use Firefox.

Try a different browser. See if it does the same thing.

But, I like Firefox ☹

OK, I will experiment tomorrow. I’ve already posted a bunch today.
