Question for forum monitors

[Paul K.]

Until a week or so ago (and "forever" before) if I received a notification of a post in a thread to which I'd subscribed, when I click on the provided link I would be taken to the exact post that was added. Now, however, when I get a notification and click on the provided link, instead of taking me to the specific post, it takes me to the very first post in the thread. Why????

Seems to me (MAYbe as much as a few wks. ago?) that the last forum "update" screwed up the way I'VE been using it.
I usually don't view as "Posts", but as "Latest Activity".
The way it used to view would be to show me the orig. post (#1), the 2nd post down would be the latest.

NOW, (using Latest Activity) it shows me ALL posts in inverse chron. order - which means if I want to see the orig. post, I've either got to view as "Posts", OR I've got to get to the end - which on any thread over 1 page, I've got to page, AND scroll (to the bottom).

I think the same "engine" is probably changing the way your subscribing works, too. I DID prefer it the old way.

Ya wonder sometimes who thought the "update" was an improvement.
