    Weird issue that I've noticed in the past few days....intermittent, and only on my PC (doesn't happen on my IPhone). If I click on a thread, the window opens scrolled all the way down to the bottom of the page (last post. I can see a scroll bar, but when I try to drag up to see earlier posts, nothing moves. Can't figure it out, not doing this on any other webpages.

    Windows 8, IE 11.

    Hey Craig. That is an IE issue. It's been a fault they've been working on since ver 10.
    Try setting Scrolling options to smooth scrolling. That usually fixed this error.

    On the top menu click on 'Tools'. There should be an option there somewhere where you can select "use smooth scrolling". Make sure that is enabled. That should fix it.

    I'm on my iPhone right now. So I can't give exact steps...

    If you can't find it than I'll give exact steps to take once I get home and on my desktop.

    Seriously tho Craig, you shouldn't be using IE anymore. It's very vulnerable.

    You should def be using Chrome. Or at least Firefox.

    I'm not being a dick here bud, IE is going to get more and more buggy from here on.
