When I click on the "Mark Topics as read" button in the Gamemasters section of the Dark Heresy forum, it still displays as having new posts when viewing on the main part of the Dark Heresy forum, and, consequently, on the big list of RPG forums. A minor complaint, I know, but I can't think of anything more pressing to whine about.

Marking All as Read never works for me. The site just churns away forever with no result. If I do it by game, I can USUALLY succeed but again, the site often just churns away for an insanely long time. Even if I'm fortunate enough to get the process completed, I can still come back to find games that are flagged as having new messages and jump to the forums to find nothing new.

Or to summarize, this site sucks. Granted it sucked a lot harder when they launched it, but it still has unforgivable problems that just shouldn't be an issue in the modern world of website design.

Oh, same here, but since I only have a few games, I just mark each forum as read separately. Which is how I discovered this bug in the first place...

Same here. Currently I have a thread in the MEQ forum that I can not mark as read, no matter what I do.

Ditto with the GM sub-forum on the Dark Heresy forums. It's been conning blue for me no matter what I do for several weeks now.

I know that one thing that mucks with the this is if your reading a new thread/post and while your on that page, someone else edits their post on that thread. When you leave the thread it will be dark indicating that there's nothing new but the forum or sub-forum that it's in will con blue even if there are no blue threads in it. This one's usually fixed with the mark all threads but sometimes I've just had to click on every thread on the page and hope that I haven't let that forum go for a fee pages before noticing this...

I just wonder who the slick salesman was who conned FFG into ditching their working site in favor of a new non-working site. Then again, I work for the government and I get to see perfectly good functions performed by outside sources brought in-house because it will save money... never mind that we don't really know how to perform the function. Maybe that's what happened.
