    Have recent updates to Forums broken features?  Both of the following represent undesirable behavioral changes to Forums.

    1.  I have threads that appear in my list when I select "No Replies" that have replies that are at least a couple of days old.

    2.  Threads to which I have replied now show up in the filtered list when I select "Unread".  It makes no sense that my own unread reply counts, since I obviously read it since I was the one who composed it.

    Yes, this is the result of the latest fix applied to the forums. If you check the forum you're thread is now in, you'll find several threads on the same topic.

    Thanks.  I wasn't aware of the existence of this forum until a moderator moved my post here.

    I have similar problem. Also, if I participated in a thread, often the number of total replies shows lower number than the actual number of replies and also sometimes new replies are not shown. Since I don't use alerts unless the thread is really important to me, I don't get updates and may miss a reply.

    And also, while I don't get 'Unexpected Error' when I post, lots of times it takes me 30+ seconds (and more) before the report gets actually submitted.

    That one I've seen for a while now before the other stuff was broken.

    Another thing I've recently observed is that clicking or opening a thread (reading it) doesn't reliably mark it as read.

    Yes, exactly. I noticed this problem as well not to mention that after I posted in a thread, it shows as non-read and I have to re-open it again.
