Is anyone else having trouble with this function? After I click Mark Forums Read and then go back to View New Posts, it still shows me all of the new posts for the last few days.

This has happened to me also. I believe it comes from when someone posts something and their post times out as they are submitting it.

Is there any way to correct it? I'm up to ten pages now. . .

Try logging out.

Dump your cookies.

Log back in.

I've actually been having the same issue - marking things read works, but when Viewing New Posts, it still shows all of the messages - marked as read, but still showing up for the query - since the update.

Logging out fixes this, sort of. I logged out, dumped the Bartertown cookie, logged back in, Viewed New Posts, and it showed none. Great.

...except that now that I have Marked All Read a few times, Viewing New Posts gets me all messages posted (and marked as read) since I logged out.

It's not a deal-breaker, but it's not the same behavior as before the latest round of server updates.

Yeah, it appeared to work at first for me as well. I logged out and logged back in, and there were no new posts. But checking again this morning, after more posts were made, clicking "Mark Forums Read" again does nothing.
