That pertains to the limited issue of user confusion of the link to the FIRST unread post of a PeopleMark, versus your insistence that you have always been able to navigate sequentially through a users posts. "Just as you are 100% sure that this feature has never existed, I am 100% positive that I've always used it in the exact way you've just described.". Not. If the objective here has been waste time it worked and, haha, the jokes on me. :-)

I have confirmed with a former developer that SI never had a feature which allowed stepping through a user's posts. At the time, it was not developed because (not necessarily in order): 1) hopping from thread to thread was considered to be potentially confusing to some users (!!!), and 2) maintaining the required indexes would have negatively impacted performance. Everyone I have checked with confirms both Bob's and my recollection that no such feature ever existed, including people who participated in the development on the old sites. I think it's safe to say that anyone who remembers using that feature prior to the new site is.... confused (i.e., wrong).
