    The Codex wants you to read it again.

    It's a very annoying phpBB bug. It just happens sometimes.

    Yeah, I have the same problem again. Last time deleting all cookies from the codex helped. But sometime the only option is to donate money to DU.

    I have it vice versa. Ever so often the whole list of 'unread' icons disappear. usually occurs after internets get short timeout or page reloads/refreshes after clicking 'back'. Somewhat annoying when there's whole list of precious unread topics in the morning and you want to keep track of what you already checked for new posts.
