I will sometimes be surfing FT and post something in a thread. Then, later, I revisit the forum and it has an open folder (indicating new posts) but the new post is by me. ?!?
This has been going on for at least a year.
I'm having similar issues. It often happens when I exit the browser and then restart it. If I then go to FT, it will show a lot of threads and posts as new and unread, while in reality they are not. It's as if the site has forgotten my last visit, if that makes any sense.
I'm experiencing this on IE and Firefox, on at least two different computers.
