First of all the improvements to this website are great.
I have noticed one small problem.
If a topic has two or more pages of replys and you do not click on all the pages the “NEW” icon will not disappear.
Wellllll yeah… thats cause there are new posts still on page one ya ain;t eyeballed yet…
All posts are very valuable and you should read them! 
You can click on the text “Mark all topics as read” if you want to skip them. I’m pretty sure they won’t be on the test.
