Wish I understood it better, but here's the steps I took when I started noticing odd behavior from this feature. Not sure if this is causation or correlation; but didn't want to leave details out. [list=1][*]Turned on DB Read Tracking which caused all topics to show up as "unread" (to be expected since I didn't have a record in in the table as having read them. [*]I started clicking on "go to last unread" for posts to start clearing them. [*]I got through about 6 or 7 topics when I got a request for a role change from a user. I changed the role and ran exec dbo.yaf_ActiveAccess_reset not realizing the roles bug was fixed in this version (nice job, by the way). [*]I went back to clicking through to last unread posts on topics but noticed the topic page was no longer registering them as being read.[/list] I can see the values in TopicReadTracking table being updated, but the topic page doesn't seem to be respecting it anymore. Also noticed the the ForumReadTracking table only has 1 entry in it from Guest behavior but all the Forums show up as having no new topics.

[/quote] Looks like this happens only on the topics page, very strange if the user loggs out and in its working again. i have to take further investigations.

I Removed that.
