""Last updated" wonkiness"
 
   LAST EDITED ON Jun-13-18 AT 01:36 PM (EDT)
 
(I seem to recall this coming up and being explained before, but if so I'm not finding it. Apologies if I'm retreading old, tired ground.)

I've pretty much given up on the new post icon -- not because of board limitations*, but because I routinely visit from three different devices and can't be arsed to manually mark things as read, so I've always got new post indicators glowing at me.

Instead I just glance at the conference headers to see which ones have acquired a new post since the last time I poked it. Easy peasy!

Except when, as now, for some reason Undocumented Features General says "Last updated Jun-12-18 03:49 AM" but when I go into it and look the most recent updated post is listed as "Jun-08-18 09:44 PM".

Obviously this isn't a huge problem -- oh noes, I wasted a click! -- but I'm unsure why this is happening and, as it persists across a signout-and-back-in cycle, I don't think it's on my end. Any ideas? Mostly just curiousity here. :)

(* technically I think the board is working exactly as intended and it's that my expectations are skewed by exposure to other board software, but I digress)
