Yep, it continues. Nope, if you leave it sit, it does not return to the first unread post.
Work does two things Mr. Stout. It either gets done or it doesn't. Right now it's not and soon we're going to find out.

Yes my hydrocodone is kicked in too and we need to see if not knowing is the same as not caring.

This isn't the only site that does it. Most xenforo sites have the issue. It's due to the page being laid out, you're brought to the first unread post, and then the social media embeds load which cause the scroll point to change. It's been a headache.

We've tried a few different plugins for social media now but none of them have handled it correctly yet. The current one was supposed to but unfortunately it's not 100% as you guys are seeing. I know it's annoying and I have been looking for a fix for it but haven't found a working solution yet.

Hey, that's all you can do, man. You're trying and we're grateful for that! I was just upset because the problem didn't seem to be heard, so to speak. Keep up the good work :thumbup:

It seems it's your own fault stout....stay off those x rated sites and you wouldn't have had this problem...as a matter of fact, it might have saved you that elbow surgery too!
LOL
That's why you always keep an old computer and a regular computer :D

The issue is being ignored. You click on a thread and it jumps back 7 or 8 posts and you have to scroll back down. That makes the board nigh unreadable. Now there's been a few instances of, no matter what you do, after you scroll to the first new post, it snaps back up 7 or 8 posts. There have been 2 threads over the last 3 days where this happened where I had to just give up.

I love this site. I would hate for it to get to the point where I give it up as a bad job. It is currently losing interest and I scroll and post a lot less. This one shouldn't be rocket science. At the very least pay attention to the ********* problem.
It's not a hearing problem. It's a listening problem. Now you got me started and I'm not anything here
