Serious Topics thread

Thank you for the question. It definitely raises awareness of this feature.

Issues like this one might be resolved by a browser refresh.
Next step would be to clear the browser cache.

Logging off before and logging in after that should help.

I’ve seen questions about clicking topics and how to get to the end of a discussion. There are a few things to know about topics and navigating to posts.

First, the forum keeps track of where you left off reading for every topic. If you’ve never read a topic then clicking the topic title will take you to the first post. If you scroll and make it to post number 26, then the next time you click that topic, you’ll start on topic 27 (if there are 41 posts then you’ll still be sent to #27 so that you can read 27 thru 41)

I don’t know why the gif isn’t animating but if you click the title, scroll a few posts into the topic, go back, click the title again, you’re exactly where you left off.

You need to be logged in for this to work.

Next, just like the old forums, you can jump to the last post of any topic by clicking on the date in the last (far right) column of each topic. The links are highlighted in yellow below

While you are reading a topic you can also jump to the end or the beginning very easily. A the the top of a post in the title bar there are some navigation controls.

Double arrow up: first post (circled in yellow below)
Double arrow down: last post (circled in orange below)

The single arrows are basically page-up and page-down.

After logging in this morning it works here, too. So it’s indeed a matter of reloading.

Thanks.  I was able to activate that feature.

I should smite you for asking such a question!  :-D

Damn, this forum stuff is complicated!  :lol:

If your thread has disapeared, don’t panic, I will be moving threads which were placed in the wrong forum. Mostly, I will moving rules question threads to the New player help forum, since rules questions are more fit to there.

Also, several topics may need moving from the General Forum to the Axis and allies forum.
