BS: 'ragtime' self-refreshing?

Has anybody else noticed this? .org has been so slow and turning up so many "can't be displayed" lately, for me at least, that I have been using ragtime a lot. It seems to self refresh when browsing threads.

I don't think loki and dharma are doing it......is this a new development that will be added to all the servers someday? I like it!!

Hadn't noticed. Spend most of my time on dharma.

What do you mean by self-refresh when browsing Sorch? I'm not clear.

When I'm on .org or anything except ragtime, the threads I have been in are red, the others are blue. They stay that way unitl I either re fresh or get off line and come back on.

With ragtime, I can click on a thread, go there, and when I click the back button, if any thread has been posted to since I clicked on the one, it will show up at the top in blue. I don't have to re fresh the page to get new responses........understand now? Not sure how to make it more clear........

All of the servers have been doing that for me as long as I've been a member. Only I don't click on the back button. I click on "forum home". Maybe that's the difference.

All the servers do that with me too. The threads I have visited stay red until a new post is made, even if I log off & on again. I too use forum home rather than the browser back, I seem to remember Max or Joe saying at some point that it was better for Mudcat if we did that.

Sorcha, you're right. I came on to ragtime this time instead of dharma like I usually do. It's self-refreshing in a way that dharma is not.

Hmmm.
