You have to go to the sub forum where the original post is. You can reply in "new posts" but you are replying to where ever the original post is, Then you are returned to the new post area.

As all of the other threads, that are in the new post section of the forum, once read, poof it it is gone when you refresh, because you have read it.
Posts and replies will not show to the people...

Yes and I think it is because you have already seen it. It will happen with reply's and first posts you make.

On the index page you can mark the forums read. But it seems when in a sub forum , using the forum tools menu , mark this forum read button it does not do anything.

The first thing the preps say when caught, " I had NOTHING to do with it" and go into denial Grin!!!
