Thanks quiltcrazy. That is exactly what is now happening. This is something new, before it would take me to the most recent response, not one I had already viewed.

YES! that is happening to me a lot.
I am trying to follow the swaps, and get lost all the time!

Maybe your browser isn't scrolling to the appropriate place on the page?

When that happens, try this:
- click anywhere on the address bar to place the cursor there
- hit enter

The page should open up again.

Let me know if after doing it you end up seeing the correct post.

It just happened to me with the "map" thread.

I figured out what the problem is. When a post happens to be the first post on the latest page in the thread (16th, 31st, etc.), the board doesn't calculate the page number correctly and sends you to the previous page of the thread.

I'm working on a complete redesign of the board software so I'm not going to fix this issue (along with a few others). I'm hoping to switch the board to the new software in a week or two.
