A member asked me this so Im asking yall......

I love the Search New Posts feature of the home page here, and I use it all the time, but I have a problem with one aspect of it: after what seems like a very short time (~10 minutes or so), all unread posts are automatically marked as read. This happens every time I visit the site, and it goes something like this:

Open site
Note there are 150+ new posts (typical Monday AM thing)
Click New Posts button, start working through new posts
Type up responses to maybe 2 posts, nowhere near through new posts list
Back to Home page - new post count now zero

Is there some way to set a configuration or option to this site such that all threads with unread posts would remain marked unread until you either open them or click a "Mark all posts read" button? I try to keep up with the conversations here, but this "feature" makes it damn difficult if I've been away for any length of time.
