yeah i’ve noticed some of these things too, but figured it was my cache being emptied or something as i did a clean re-install of my system during the same time the forums got their update. had to re-read some threads that showed me the first post instead of the first new post as well.
edit: a search-problem as well, i believe. if i search for ‘B2’, i get ‘no results’. however, i was looking for this post, which clearly has the term ‘B2’ in it. i also tried advanced search, match any words in both titles and threads, and nothing. strange, no?
