Problems Viewing New Posts

Hi All:

I have a great deal of trouble with new posts. I checked new posts and hour ago, but did not have time to reply to the ones I wanted to at that point. So, when I came back from the store after an hour most of what was new before was gone. So, I went to the main menu, and no stars were showing. I hate not being able to trust the normal site mechanisms to keep me informed of what has happened since my last visit or whatever. Is there a way to view the topics posted to in, for example, the last x hours or days. Thanks for any help or insights you can give.

I checked into this a few weeks back, and apparently, the way that the new posts system works is "by design" because doing it any other way would cause some sort of problem (no idea what). In any case, from everything I learned, we are stuck with it the way it is. Sorry. (Blame vbulletin).

Thanks daz:

You know me, whatever. Does what you say apply to the stars too. Should the stars have gone out. They used to not go out when they should, and would come back on when they shouldn't. I am not too sure if that's what they do not. I've been trying to relpy on "View New Posts."

As you know, the stars used to not go out when they should, and would come back on when they shouldn't. I am not too sure if that's what they do now. I've been trying to rely on "View New Posts" since the stars were/are undependable.
