List of active threads keeps changing

Everytime ive finished reading a thread and go back to the list it has changed order and doesnt take me back to where i was so i have to continually scroll down through all the threads i have already seen and guess where i was - this is driving me crazy !!!

im using an ipad if that makes any difference?

Does it on android too, I've mentioned it elsewhere but no change as yet.

Is that not what it's meant to do? Threads with the most recent posts go to the top of the list, so it's constantly changing.

Yep, happens to me on my phone. I may see three threads that look interesting, half-read one, go back a page to get to the list again but everything has moved. And I don't remember what thread was going to read next.

All was normal on Thursday, but when I woke up yesterday ALL CHANGE!

And when someone it @ it highlights in grey and looks fucking awful.

Actually I think all of the subjects auto refresh now but it's more noticeable in active.

It's very annoying, and didn't used to do that.

Well it didnt used to - so you could look at a whole list for a while going back and forth between the list and threads you were reading - if you refreshed the list then it would change. And when you returned to the list after reading a thread it took you back to where you were in the list - not back to the start or some random place - and you could see which threads you had already looked at.

It's frustrating the hell out of me. Especially when it puts you tight to the start of a thread you've been reading.

Pressing "watch" doesn't seem to be working for me either. Anyone else?

This is annoying me too. When I go back after reading thread it takes me to random place in the active threads list. I've then missed threads higher up so have to scroll back at the top. I preferred it the old way.
