Not a question as simply a statement.
I have come to the conclusion tha the New Posts function is pretty useless. I don't get on with a enough time to go through all the new posts in a short period of time. I get on between meetings and other activities. I don't shut down my browser but when I try to go back to the new posts page after some period of time, 50% of the time, the page has gone blank and I have no way to regenerate the list except based on some time the web site decided I had last been on. The best example was today. For various reasons I hadn't been able to be on for the past several days. I had 5 pages of "new posts" when I got on this morning. I got through roughly the first page of those new posts. When I came back to it just now, they are all gone and replaced by a half a dozen new posts since 11:26AM today rather than several pages of them. Even the Advanced Search won't let me regenerate the list. It demands a search term in addition to the time constraint.
Please don't get me wrong. Everyone moderating this site does a wonderful job and I am not complaining (much).
But, as you work through things over time, if there is something that can be done to solve my intermittant problem, I would greatly appreciate it.
