I'm not seeing that link at all where you describe it.

Re: [Audyssey] follow-up to audiogames.net
Are you talking about the one that has all on the same line: new posts, active posts, unanswered posts?

We must be referring to different links, because that is not how it works for me. When I press the link it would take me directly to post 1055 in the situation you described.

Re: [Audyssey] follow-up to audiogames.net
Chris, firstly I'd recommend setting the forum to display the max amount of posts per page, ie 75. New posts do have the word "new on them" so if Jaws has a feature where you can find text you could always use it, but myself I just go to the edit area in the quick reply box at the bottom then tab back to my own last post or the last one I read. I don't believe I've ever seen a Pun bb system with the ability to display only certain posts and not others. And there I'm not talking about audiogames.net specifically, but about the bb software that has been used. Beware the grue!

[Audyssey] follow-up to audiogames.net
The new posts link is a duplication of the new link that is in the top menu, that is, it shows posts with new replies, but it does not show only the replies that have been posted since last one logged in. It is this latter functionality that I am trying to find in audiogames.net. As an example, I just logged in and found that the Swamp topic had new replies. There were at the time of writing 1061 replies to this topic of which I'd read 1,055. Clicking the new posts link just repeated the list of topics with new messages in them. I had to manually go to page 22 (I have the board set to show 50 posts per page), and then use heading navigation to go to 1,056 and begin reading. This means I have to remember for topics in which I'm interested what the last message number I read was, which is tedious. There are other forum software packages that do this quite nicely, as the example on http://www.burningwheel.org demonstrates. I'm not suggesting that audiogames.net change posting software at this date, but the feature does exist in other software, and I wonder if it can be enabled in the one we're using, or if I am being really dense, though I looked all over the topic page for other new links and found nothing promising.
