Recently when clicking on the first unread tab, I have been taken to the thread's first post instead (as though I have clicked on the thread title). I'm using an iPad and it doesn't happen every time. I've noticed it more on threads with 40+ pages or so, though that may be coincidence.

This happens to me as well. It happens when you hit back, as opposed to clicking the forum you wish to go to. if you "first unread" a thread without any unread parts, it automatically takes you back to the beginning.

That makes a lot of sense as I tend to click back on a regular basis - it's just easier than scrolling to the top to find the threat tools tab. I'll back sure I bother to do that in the future. Thanks
