However, within the last month I've noticed a really disturbing bug that has made browsing the forum all but impossible for me while on my phone. I'd like to know if any other mobile users have been affected and if so what platform they're on. Basically, it goes like this. Say there are unread topics in Initial D General Discussion, Initial D Music, Automotive Discussion, Community and Off-Topic. As per usual, I'll start at the top and work my way down. The mobile theme has always had a bug where if you use Safari's back button it'll clear your unread forums, so I never use it, I always use the Initial D World logo at the top to go back to the main index. So I'll check through General, then move on to Automotive. Finish that, move on to Community... ...then suddenly even though I was just at the Index and it told me there were unread posts, I go into Community and none of the threads are marked as unread. I go back to the index and sure enough, it's gone and cleared my unread history. I rely on that history to let me know at a glance which threads I need to pay attention to and it's especially important on my mobile where the amount of information displayed is at a premium. So has anyone else experienced this mysterious clearing of unread topic history? |

There are a few other bugs but they're other pages. No big deal for me though, I'm used to it. Since you brought it up though I hope it get fixed soon!
