Just experimented a bit. If the thread has multiple pages opening it without going to the last page does not seem to set the "read" status.

[New] = you have never opened this thread

[x New] = you have read it but there are new posts, even if it is just 1 new post. You can also tell this is the case from the tooltip if you hover over the [New]

Preview works fine for me but but maybe that is part of the two star thing. The Preview/Edit/Save Draft buttons are misleadingly greyed out despite the fact that they are available for use. On the other hand the paging buttons are the same color ...

Meh ... I just want a skip button. Especially on replay. None of the story is so good that it is worth rewatching. Right now I just alt+tab out and check back once in a while to see if the NPCs are done wasting time.

The Fields of Ruin event has been broken for around 2? months. It was around the same time when the Thaumanova fractal boss broke due to a fix in code somewhere else. The fractal boss got fixed since there is at least one person responsible for fractals but I guess there isn't anyone responsible for core Tyria events.

https://imgur.com/a/CPs2X got it looking mostly how I want it. Haven't decided if I want to make the post header sticky like the report/quote/etc. buttons.

Yeah that is a weird choice. Would have expected it to be in the same place the old forum with the report/quote/etc. options.

The "button" already exists. It's the post's timestamp.

Did you guys forget the fact that you had to add additional sources for flax?

I've only ever had to use two mouse so far. One was a Logitech and the current is a Razer. If I were to average their life span it would be around 7 years. Both of them actually still technically work. The Logitech got replaced because over the years the bit of plastic that presses on the actual switches for the left/right button has actually been slightly gouged out by the switch itself. I consider that fairly durable. Also maybe I am just clicking too hard ... but "they don't make them like they used to" also applies so things might no longer be true.> @Dawdler.8521 said:

> I have a Razer Deathadder and I love the ergonomics of it, its perfect for my hand (logitech mice is for teens or something, they are tiny... and I did go through like 6 of the MX5 and G5 series in my youth) but the quality and durability? Meeeeeeh so and so. I have found it last about a year or two and then the switches start to wear out (it will doubleclick or loose pressed) - and thats supposed to be high quality switches. That said its still a fairly cheap mouse in comparison to the feature heavy $100-150+ "MMO mice" and I consider it a consumable, lol. I've gone through 3 Deathadders during my GW2 gaming. Still havent found any mouse capable of replacing it and believe me, I've tried even with newer Logitech G502. Had to return that crap and get another Deathadder.

 

The annoying thing there is that the switches DO work perfectly fine. It was the things pressing the switches that broke. -_-

High quality switches doesn't matter if the thing pressing the switches break down. :angry:

Maybe this problem can go away in a few years if 3D printers become as common as smartphones.

 

I am still using the Razer so technically is correct. :p

 

On the other hand the issue with Razer seems worse than the Logitech. While the plastic bit pressing on the switch wearing out is just physical wear from use the Razer seems to have occasional issues with the motion tracker where it doesn't fully register the vertical axis.

The layout of this new forum seems terrible for reading. There is just too much clutter. The icons and the report/quote/etc button that take up way too much space.

I hate the male PC voice of pretty much all races except charr but when I went to make my charr warrior I accidentally made it female out of habit. :p
