Is it just me or is it like that?
I do a search on say 'resolution' in the Forum General. I get a list of all topics containing this search, so far OK. When I start to read such a searchresult which has several pages I find it hard to get back to the original search result page.
When the topic has, let's say, 7 pages I have to click Back also 7 times. Is there some kind of shortcut for this?

Also the symbols indicating 'new post since last visit' seems to work irratic.
Topics containing new post have a red dot in the record symbol. But after browsing some (search) pages and reading here and there a topic, suddenly ALL topics change from red-dot symbol to normal black symbol, just like I've have read all the topics while that ain't so!
This make's it hard to keep track of the unread topics.

After I get the list of topics containing a search I open each topic in a new tab or window of the net browser. In this way I still have the first window with found topics.
 

yes I know this 'trick' but that's not how you need to dos in most other forums, strange...
 

I hate to bring this post back on, but still i'm suffering with this.
1.The record symbol with the red dot inside indicate 'new post since last visit': suppose I was at the forum yesterday evening, and until now 10 news topics were added, are all others topics supposed to have record icon w/o the red dot? Because all the these post were there already yesterday no matter I've read them or not? But when I read a post also the icon changes from reddot to no red dot record.
So is a topic with a reddot-record icon a sign for an unread topic or a new topic since last visit?
On the other hand, when I view a never viewed before section, like 'Balkan forum' all topics have no reddot!??
But some sections seem to work as aspected: like 'Hardware techn Supp' there I have mostly reddot-record icons.
And this: 'Dutch forum' first page: I have about 6 topics with red dot, looking at details of 1 of them then go back, red-dot of this topic changes to black =OK, but then got to the 2° page and back to first, => all topics with black-dot?!? Even w/o readi the 5 other topics?

2.When I select 'PC Version Bugs' section from the main Forum I have almost 40 topics on the first page
but when If I click the 'Skins' section I only have 15 topics on the 1° page, why is that?
Strange, on a second try also 'PC Version Bus' showed only 15 topics on 1 page?

3.What's the need for the Atomix icons (flowers in yellow/cyan)? Doesn't this software has a seperate section that there is a need to indicate post with a another type of icons?

4. What if you follow this forum from 2 PC's? Is your situation part of the login or saved to the PC as Cookie?

All these make extensive browinsg the forums very hard to follow up. I also follow some other forums and it is only here I find it hard to do.
Is is just me, or a cookie thing, or what?
 

Nobody else having such sort of trouble?
I know it's boring text to read, but it will make using this forum much easier for me and others.
