I have been noticing the same thing. It wasn't like that a while ago but recently this has started occuring. No idea what it's due to though.

I have been having all kinds of weird problems with the forum. I used to read the forum from two different computers and there seemed to be problems in their synchronization (which is not odd since seemingly the state is stored into cookies...). However, I happened to delete the cookies of the forum in one of the computers by accident and since that happened it has been completely chaotic: New messages may or may not show as new messages, seemingly completely at random. I would say less than 10% of new messages really show as new messages. Sometimes messages I have already read reappear as unread even though there are no new posts to it, etc etc. Seems like this phpBB thing is not yet perfect...

if you visit the forum, and then close your browser, when you log back in again (or visit the forum next time) all unread messages will have been marked read. it's not a bug, it's a feature.
