does it just go to the most recent post? i thought it was supposed to go to first post since the last time you read, just clicked new posts on a 7 page thread i havent looked at before, and it brought me straight to the last post.

It's not a problem just unexpected behavior. I didn't code these forums.

From a coding perspective it would be rather annoying to track not only when you last viewed a topic, but also the last post you have seen in that topic.

must say 8bc has a slightly easier "your posts" button to keep track of what you posted, not your own post but the topic is displayed in a more easy way I think. sometimes. yeah.

Your Posts is a "advanced" search page query. which will be added here and is planned. Too busy working on the music section first.
As far as Topics we might be switching them to Title case as oppose to upper as it is already like that in the "snow" theme.

I like the single post view, because you can easily go from there to the thread, and it's most useful when I'm looking for a discussion I had but don't remember where. Plus you can fav threads you want to keep taps on.
