My View New Posts page seems broken. Does this happen to others too?

I get one of the following:

* Read messages are listed with Read icons, and unread ones with Unread icons. I guess this is the correct behavior.

* Read messages are listed with Unread icons. This seems buggy.

* I get the error "Threre[sic] are no posts matching that criteria." Don't know what this means. Possibly it happens more often around midnight.

I now tried deleting my cookies and logged in again. This changed the View New Posts page from the second to the third alternative.

Let's BUMP this thread. tongue.gif

Seems the forum is confused by my "last visit" time as well. For example, just a couple of minutes ago the forum main page said something like

--but I have visited the forum several times after 10 AM today. Then I reloaded the forum main page, and now it suddenly says

--note how my "last visit" has advanced to 1:39 PM, even though I was here just a couple of minutes ago. Reloading a third time updates the current time, but my "last visit" is still stuck on 1:39 PM:

I haven't put any thought to it, but I think it's worse too. I've missed your posts in the staff forum several times because the threads have been marked read on that page. That I notice, sooner or later, since we post in the same few threads, but I'm sure it happens with threads in the open forum too and then one may never notice.
