Um, posts keep appearing as unread even tho I've read them, consistently and without fail. Any ideas?

Lol. It's pretty easy to follow these days anyway, I remember these forums being a lot busier a few years back, strange as it sounds I'd like to think it's the forums that have changed and not myself or my memories...

Eureka! Sort of. I see now that it's a caching issue of some sort, probably nothing to do with the winamp domain; pages are being loaded from cache even if they've been updated, for some reason it seems to only affect this site... I'm looking for an option in firefox to turn off caching for a particular website, while still keeping images cached if possible.

Or not, I deleted the cache and it seemed to actually get worse, and even when I can get it to refresh pages threads in which I was the last poster are showing up with the unread icon... I wish I could give better info for a proper bug fix, this is making the forums difficult to use, and I just don't understand this enough to describe it... (and when I can't get it to refresh then I can't see new threads or posts)

Ok so I found an add on to turn off cache for forums.winamp.com, and cleared the cache. The problem is still there, even though pages aren't being cached (I checked) they still arn't refreshing so the problem is NOT on my end. In fact I had to copy/paste my first edit back in, because THIS page wouldn't update ether. So far threads themselves still update.
