Following your earlier advice, I would have to click on my avatar, choose the appropriate view, and then choose it from a list of all my other conversations... all to pick up the thread from where I last posted on it. Most other sites automatically remember which posts you are working with, and put you at the last place that you were on the thread whenever you click on it when a new reply is made.
When someone replies to this thread, it appears in the New Posts section of the Forum menu. If I click on the thread, I want to go to the last post I made on that thread, not the beginning of it. I also don't want to have to search for a conversation every time I change messages and want to return to it. It is normally a setting somewhere, but I can't seem to locate it anywhere unless it is something about the way the site is set up.
Maybe I'm just making it too complicated, as I can't seem to find an easy way to check for any new posts that might be in my watched threads. Again, I can't just click on my watched conversations and go to the last post that I read. *sigh* It SUCKS to be getting old and feeble!
