Hi folks

We upgraded the forum tonight - if you find any problems please let us know.
 
If i go into unread threads and then go to other threads it still shows that the threads are unread even if no new posts have been made in the thread.
 
If I go to the main index I have to refresh it otherwise it shows me old posts in the latest post areas, despite other people having replied to the thread after the post shown there.
 
Scratch that. If I go to any page on the forum I have to refresh to see new replies/information. Just went to the ME3 thread and my reply didn't show up despite me posting in the thread more than 10 minutes ago. Pressed F5 and suddenly my post showed up.
 
I just get this message the whole time while trying to get into the forum.

Sorry, the board is unavailable at the moment while we are testing some functionality.

We will be back soon...

Only way for me to actually get here is to click on Today's posts. Every other forum link says the board is either unavailable or that I don't have permission to view.

Scratch that, very strange, after a refresh it seems have have worked. You would think it should refresh after trying to load the page multiple times.

Okay, either this issue has been resolved, or it only happens on my Notebook. No such issue on my desktop. Both are running Chrome, btw.
 
Wait, no, nevermind, Doing it once again. It seems to be a caching issue. It seems the browser caches a certain page, and every time you revisit that page, it shows you the cached page and not the way it currently is.
 
Yeah just noticed that it's doing the same thing to me, after going to a page I have to manually refresh it every time before it actually updates.
