I've noticed this before, but I think I'll ask
If I am in the "Language Specific" forum and hit "Mark read" it doesn't mark the two sub forums as read. This is probably ok though I really wish you could say "mark this and child forums read" or something similar (worded better than that ).
The problem I see lies in when I've gone into both the C# and VB forums and clicked the "mark forum read" link on both of them but NOT on the higher level forum "Language Specific". If I go back to the root forum "Extreme .NET Forums", it shows "Language Specific" as unread. If I click the link, nothing shows up as unread. Clicking "Mark all Read" in the "Language Specific" forum will clear the icon from the root forum's listing.
Since I only read the C# forum (I'll leave the VB questions to others), it's kind of a pain to click through thread pages worth of "Mark forum read" to get that icon to go away. Since I generally spend a bit of time reading the forums, it's not uncommon to get to the bottom and see new posts in forums I previously marked read. If I don't go through all 3 forums in Language Specific (the LS forum plus the C# and VB forums), I won't know if the icon is for C# or from the older posts.
Whew, and thanks
