Disappearing Topics

Is it just my list, or has anyone else noticed that the topic they were just in from the Unread Topics list has disappeared when they go back to the list? Until just a day ago, when I read a topic and went back to the Unread list to select another, the one I was on would have changed color. Now, it's just not there (annoying because what if I wanted to make note of the title or something?) and I also have a hard time figuring out how far down the list I'd gone. Just wondering if anyone else has noticed this.

Once you've read the topic, it's no longer an "Unread topic." It will return to that list once someone has added a reply that you've not read. If you want to reread that specific topic, go to the home page and then click on the category that the topic is in.

ETA...I appreciate the advice. It wasn't a big problem, just a little odd that is was working differently than what I was used to.

Here's a suggestion. Almost every browser lets you open multiple tabs at the same time. Open up the unread topics in the first tab. Instead of left-clicking each topic, reading it, and then having to hit the back button, right-click each topic. A pop-up menu will appear with "Open in new tab" being one of the options. Select that option. You can open several topics at once. Then click on each tab to read the topics and when finished, close that topic (look for the "x" on the right corner of the tab (on most browsers)). That way you're never changing the "Unread Topics" list and it will be the same as when you first look at it.
