The only problem I see is the hundreds of browser windows you have open, you can't possibly be looking at all of those at the one time!

No that is an actual forum bug. Sometimes when you click on last page it does that. You have to click on the actual thread link and then go to the next to last page to see it. It only does this with custom number of threads per page.

It actually happens when posts have been deleted from within the thread. The calculated last page is based on how many posts there were, and not how many there are, thus, the last page it takes you to isn't actually the last page at all, instead, it would be one page after the last.

Yeah, well some people enoy having many Windows like that.
What confuses me is why Windows hasn't Auto-Grouped them. Usually it does this when you have more than 10 Windows open at once.

Even at the higher resolutions.

I also do that, I hate groups, it adds an extra click when navigating between windows.

Just to clarify, I'm 90% sure that that happens EITHER when the post hasn't been accepted by a mod OR a post has been deleted (hidden from view). However it could just occur when a post has been deleted, not sure since I didn't write the forum

About the custom page lengths, that just affects when the bug occurs..


Now why the hell are there so many windows AND tabs

Seriously, you kiddies need to go out and play and stop worrying why he has 1000 windows and tabs open. There are so many more important and/or more fun things to worry about.

The mere fact that you bothered to reply with something like that shows that you should take your own advice and stop worrying about what we worry about!

This computer is usually about 50°C... I remember when it needed cleaning and it was at like 80°C because of all the fluff and dust inside
