I try not to, as I try to read every post.

If I've been away for a bit however, I am guilty of only opening the bulk of threads that have interesting titles, and bluk-ignoring the rest.

In those cases it's usually when I mark as read the threads about games I don't own.

Well, it took me about 5 minutes just to find the "Mark Topics Read" thingy so, er, never.

Shouldn't the top option be "More than once a second"?

There's a "mark topics read" button?

myp · **Posted:** Wed Jan 21, 2009 9:35

Apparently so.

DBSnappa · **Posted:** Wed Jan 21, 2009 9:37

It's not apparent if you don't know where it is though, is it.

Aha, found it! It's just underneath the list of page numbers in the General Discussion page, at the top on the right hand side.

A-HA

I never really go to that page and I'm unlikely to use that button.

Where is the "what?" option?

I read everything in the main forum, then use the link every so often so the sports forum icon stops being orange :0)

You could just use the 'mark forums as read' link instead.

Oh. That's the one I meant.

And the European Union, but being part of a "panel of nations" is different than this "special relationship" poo.

How often does the EU click "mark topics read"? Is there some EU-mandated minimum time frame?

Thank you, Mr Chris, for making me cough tea over my desk.

Good god man, they've been telling you what length your bananas should be for years, now.

I view these boards, and some other ones where I try to SEE IT ALL, via th "view new posts" button. It makes the "mark forums read" button OBSOLETE.
