grrrrrrrr, 'New Topics since your last visit' drives me buggers! Once you visit that url, you MUST visit those articles, because they will never be presented to you as new again. If your browser crashes, they will not be presented as new even if you immediately you revisit it.

UPDATE: actually it says 'View posts since last visit'.

Well, yes. If your browser is crashing, isn't that the real problem...?

Mine's not crashing, but after viewing a few topics, suddenly, all of the remaining "unread" forums and posts vanish, without a trace of yellow to be seen, anywhere. Additionally, if I make a posting, the "unread posts" feature also vanishes, along with the yellow flagging. It reduces me to searching, by reading the dates on all forums, and the posts inside, to find what's new, since last visit. Not sure why this happens, but the yellow is gone, and missed, as well......... :(

What I do - with no problems

1) log into railroad.net/forums
2) open each forum I want to read in a new tab (apple-click or click on the scroll wheel) (it works on PCs too - try it)
3) visit each tab and open each new topic I choose to read in new tab
4) close tabs when done reading
