I usually access this site via a bookmark to the "New Posts" link.
I've noticed that some time recently (I was out of town for a while, so I'm not sure when this started exactly), the behavior has changed when I click on threads from that page...

Used to be...
1. New Posts Page
2. Click thread title
3. Go directly to first unread post.

Now is....
1. New Posts Page
2. Click thread title
3. Brings up page 1, post 1 of the thread.
4. Need to click "View First Unread" to go to first unread post.

My Firefox changed from 39.? to now 40.0.3... Maybe that did something?
Need to check my Greasemonkey scripts for compatibility... Maybe that's the issue?

Probably something with Greasemonkey. AFAIK, the standard behavior for some time is that the thread title link from New Posts has always gone to the start of the thread, and the blue circle button with two arrows just to the left of the thread title goes straight to the first unread post. The Greasemonkey script you'd posted a while back copied the link from the button to the title.

Yeah... I think something about GM changed with FF 40...
Drats. Don't need a time waster today.

Thanks!

I use that little blue button A LOT to go to the first new post. I wish other forums had that.
