I could swear this was already addressed once, but I can't find the post.
Anyway, when you return to the site, and click "New Posts", it shows all the new posts since the last time you were there. You can read them or not. The unread are bold, and the read not-bold. After a period of time, that list expires, and everything unread is now marked read and removed from the list.
In any case, it is so fast now, I look at new posts, get to read one or two, get called away for a phone call or something, and when I come back, all the posts are gone from "New Posts". And I have no way to tell what I missed. Can it please be made longer? Maybe an hour?
Edit: Or better yet, could posts always stay unread until I actually read them? Other forums are like that, with a "mark forum read" button, which cleans up the remaining unread posts after I am done.
