No problem. Glad to hear that you're receiving them again!
I have checked spam folders and nothing there. But the strange thing is I just got an email saying you replied to this thread. so it seems to be sorted now, thanks very much
+1.I believe the purging of "READ" postings should be actioned after closing a session, not during the session!
-- read items were previously identified as unbold format items
-- unread items were identified in bold
If read posts drop off the display list after you read them, should you want to go back to them for what ever reason you have to search for them!!
Far better is to restore the prior process and read remain on the list in "unbold".
I guess the real assumption is that people have a sense of humour. Clearly thats a very poor one on my part.
Problem is as outlined in the pics,

I know they haven't been deleted FFS. They just don't show up any more in the alphabet stock list that they should.
Joe I'm surprised you haven't commented on this,
Is this the way its meant to be?
Joe,
When
I click on "New Posts" , threads such as Coalition Discussion do not appear. Is it working properly?
I feel it leads to the smaller number of posts on that thread as opposed to the Labor discussion thread which appears prominently on clicking on " New Posts"
It is the same on Chrome and Firefox, and mac and pc

Joe, you briefly fixed the problem above. It is now back to dysfunctional. Can you give me a workaround for chrome or firefox to view "New Posts "
gg
Hi GG, there were changes made to the "New Posts" system a little while ago so that unread posts continue to be tracked even after logging or timing out. Unread posts are now kept track of for a total of 10 days, after which they are considered read.
The only difference with the new system is that threads in which there are no new posts are no longer displayed in the list.
As an alternative you can use "Today's Posts" in the "Quick Links" drop down menu or the new "What's New?" option in the "Community" drop down menu.
thanks Joe.
Nonetheless I think it is unfair, that a post on "Federal Labor discussions" from 7 hours ago can appear on ASF "New Post" when there is no indication that "Federal Coalition Posts " have appeared 30 minutes ago.
It would appear that there is discordance.
This to me appears un-Australian and against the fair go.
The ALP seem to be getting a free go on ASF

GG, the reason for this is because you have read all the current posts in the Federal Coalition discussion thread, while you have not read all of the new posts in the Federal Labor party discusson thread. That is why one thread is showing up in "New Posts" and not the other. New posts are only "new" if you haven't read them.
I assure you it has nothing to do with political bias, it's just the way the "New Posts" system works. If someone adds a new post to the Federal Coalition discussion thread it will immediately jump back up to the top of the list again.
thanks Joe,
It seems though that a click on " New Posts" should not display new posts.
I'm not having a go at you, but it is discordant.
GG, just think of it this way. Once you have read all the posts in a thread there are no longer any "new" posts and that thread will no longer show up in the list of "New Posts". Once a new post is added it will go back to the top of the list of threads with "New Posts".
All threads are equal in this regard and none are favoured over any others. Everyone's "New Posts" list will be different as everyone reads different threads.
I encourage my mates to become asf members.
If they click on "New Posts" will they find a six hour ago comment on the ALP rather than a 30 minute comment on the Coalition.
And do they know that if they re enter the site their previous clicks will have been deleted, giving the impression that an old "Federal Labor" discussion is the most recent.
