New Threads

I don't know if this happens to any of you, but I have it happen quite frequently. I come to the forum and there are between 50-150 new threads to read

I start to read them and pause to answer one or two with a paragraph or two reply. When I return to new threads the number has dropped to those that were posted (8-10) while I was posting.

I know I can go to the home page and review the last 50, but is there anyway to stop the others from disappearing?

Since I use Mozilla Firebird I usually open threads I'm interested in reading more closely or answering to in a new browser tab. This way the original window/tab can retain the first search listing and thus all the posts I haven't reviewed yet.

The same would work for IE too, I suppose, only that you'd in a worst-case situation have a gzillion windows open at one time, cluttering up the task bar.

I dunno what your browser-weapon of choice is. I do suggest trying out Mozilla Firebird 0.7. Lovely piece of kit, that.
