[OBW]

I read through all posts, or at least open every thread and peruse it. Then, once I have done them all, I hit the "refresh" button on the browser. At that point, no threads are shown in bold unless there have been posts during the time I was reading. Then those threads will move to the top and be bold. If they are all not bold, there is nothing new.

If you fail to click on the "remember me" box when logging in, after a short time, when you go back to the index to look at the next unread thread, you will find everything is not bold and you have to search to find the posts you have not yet read.

I also note that if I go into the PM section, it resets my cookies for the remainder of the forum (nothing is bold even if I have read none of it), so I always read the forum posts first, then go into the PM system if there are messages there.
