One page of threads only?
Is there now some trick to seeing more than 1 page of topics? There are no navigation buttons to see page 2 and on. Do I have to give up Firefox to be allowed more than a page?
Nevermind, there are only 11 existing threads here and only 25 total in the DVD bargains forum. That's why only 1 page shows up. Never saw this happen before.

Okay, WTF is going on? Immediately after editing my above post I can now see that it jumped from 11 to 41 threads in a matter of seconds. Is this another Firefox problem?

The problem is the default time frame in the 'from' field in display threads is changing whenever it wants to. The default was '1 day' in DVD bargains, which was never set by me. In this forum the time frame changed when I edited my original post.
It seems others using Firefox are seeing the same thing, or are any IE users also experiencing the problem?

More info: I'm using Firefox 1.0
When I leave here to go to another site and then return, the BBS remembers my login, and I'm still logged in, but the time frame field is reset to '1 day'.
This did not happen before and I've been using Firefox for over a year. What changed?

I've discovered a workaround that others having this problem might want to use. I never use the control panel, but if you go to the 'user CP' on the dvdtalk toolbar you can find 'edit options' on the left hand menu. In the options page scroll down and change the 'Default Thread Age Cut Off' to whatever you want. If you leave it at 'use forum default' it always resets to '1 day'.
Whenever I return here now I see all the threads like I used to.
