The change in behavior (read post leaves list on paging-back) began after the conversion to "https://" status on the page..
What I do after logging in, is to click on "Show new replies to your posts." If you have ever created or replied to a thread it will show up in this list after someone else posts or modifies it. VERY USEFUL feature.
When selecting one of these posts I normally pick the icon on the far right which takes me to the last point that I had read in the post which is close to where the new material begins. Also VERY USEFUL.
Then I will click on "Show unread posts since last visit." After doing the above, these will all be posts that I've never posted-to before. I start at the top of the list as it is the "freshest" and work my way down. Whether I start at the beginning of a post (click on subject line) or at the bottom of a post (click on right-most icon) depends on the reply-count that I see.
For new member postings, I generally will not read and add to the welcomes if there are more than about 6 replies already, unless the person made the subject line of their post interesting (i.e. something other than "Hello", "New Guy", etc.)
I find that doing the above makes the best use of my time on the board for catching up.
When I've made it through the list (usually 1-3 pages), I "Mark All Messages as Read" to clear the list so it won't be so vaunting the next visit.
For RESEARCH, that's another matter...
First go to the appropriate sub-board and then use the SEARCH window carefully picking your search terms. You'll get a list of posts in that sub-board containing the search term(s) and an "in-context" quote containing the term.
Enjoy this great and wonderful Forum!
