Is this happening for anybody else? It’s so annoying!

Yes
v irritating

PashaMinaMio · 15/01/2026 23:46

Yes all the time.
It drives me mad!

I get 5 of 6 responses down in a thread and wham, up it goes to the top/start again.

I then need to scroll down again the get back
where I was.

I think it might have something to do with adverts loading?

Stupid and very tedious and irritating.

Yes, it’s happening to me too! I think maybe it’s something to do with the ads on the page. It’s so annoying trying to find where I was last reading on the thread!

Yes it started happening after the drop down ads appeared

I don’t get this since I started using a browser that strips out the adverts.

Hello and thanks for posting. We're investigating this now but if anyone is able to send us a screen recording of the threads jumping back, that would be really useful. If you're unsure as to how to do this, here is a quick guide. Please send to [email protected] or post here. Thank you.

I don’t see how it would even be possible to screenshot as I’ll just be reading a thread and, bam, it’s back at the top?!

She means recording an actual video but I certainly won’t be doing that because you never know exactly when it’s going to happen and I’m not willing to g to record all my time here on the off-chance.

Chemenger · 16/01/2026 17:04

Happens frequently to me. I can’t video it because I am not psychically connected to my phone so I can’t tell when it’s going to happen and unfortunately time travel isn’t one of my many talents so I can’t go back and record it when it has just happened. Why MNHQ always comes out with this recording suggestion is a mystery to me, do they read the description of the problem?

NewAgeNewMe · 17/01/2026 06:14

It’s blooming irritating.

HelpMeUnpickThis · 17/01/2026 06:18

It’s infuriating and happening a lot more.

Also the adverts are always shite that has nothing to do with my interests and/or block my screen so it is even more annoying. 😡
