I'm really curious about something... Lets say I visit a thread that i've never read, and it's about 13 pages long. When I click it, it takes me to page 9. Is there any reason for this? Is it random? You would think that it would know I haven't visited that thread yet and it would start me on page 1 message 1, and take me back to where I left off last time.

If you click the text link to a thread, it will take you to the first post of that thread. If you click on the arrow button that looks like this > then you'll be taken to the very last post on the thread. Does your situation happen often? Sounds rather odd...

Did a little more testing.. I figured out when it does it. It's when I click on the "last post" topic (newest updated thread to the right of the section titles. Below the link is an arrow pointing => which should take me to the last post in that thread (newest), if I click on the link itself it shoudl take me to the beginning but it also takes me to the newest - last post.

You're talking about the text link, right? What browser are you using BTW (although this should have no bearing on this problem)?

When you put your mouse pointer over both the arrow and the text link, are the link addresses (in the Status bar) the same or different?

Internet Explorer

When I hover over the links, I get different results (ie they aren't the same)

Geez, if you're getting different links, you should be taken to two different addresses... so when you click both, you are inevitably taken to the same link address, huh?
