So, I'm looking at the top bar, and notice "Chat" with number above it.  When I try to click it, I'm getting a "Access Denied."

Now, maybe I'm not in the cool club, and if not, no biggie.  But, I'm guessing I should either be able to get in there, or I shouldn't be seeing it at all.

 I appreciate all the hard work the Mack's have put in to it and I think it's a definite improvement.

Is it possible to tone down the auto censoring?  It's hard enough trying to figure out what some of the sets are based on the two or three digit initials, but now we've added to the mix trying to find out what retailer we're talking about based on a couple of letters and stars.  Sometimes I feel like I'm playing wheel of fortune.  I understand the need for it, but censoring B&Noble seems a bit much.

Jeff is looking into it :)

I noticed the "Latest Brick Classified Listings" widget when selecting a subforum... which is pretty cool, but when I tried to click on a specific one (http://www.brickclassifieds.com/products/new-lego-star-wars-two-sets-3024430246-mint-sealed-rare-htf) it's always taking me back to the Canada forum. Very weird as the other links work ok. Is that because maybe the link doesn't exist anymore?

I'm not sure if this has been mentioned before or if this is the place to post it.  But, I thought I should mention that when you click on one of the latest Brick Classified listings from the main brickpicker page, it just redirects it back to the main brickpicker page and not the listing.  I've noticed this for several days now, so perhaps no one else has noticed.

i was getting the same thing when I clicked on the "Brick Classifieds" tab. Instead of going to Brick Classifieds, it just went back to the forums.

I don't where this question has been mentioned but I found that the tab "go to the last unread post" ( or something like, I can't remember exactly) is missing from the place where it is in threads. Is there anyway I can find it again? This is a nice feature I would like to have. 

I notice there is a blue line to seperate the read post and the unread...but this is a not as convinient as the previous one.

​Are you asking about in the list of forum threads? If so, it's the large blue dot or star (not sure why some have stars vs large dots) just to the left of the thread name. If it's not there, there are no unread posts in the thread/forum.

​Can we have this dot also in the 'latest threads' widget on the main forums page? That would be quite useful.

​Now I see it. Thanks.

​The stars indicate threads with new posts where you've contributed a post to in the past, the dots are threads with new posts that you have not made a post of your own in.

 

they're great but I wish they were bigger - sometimes it's hard to hit the centre of the star to bring one to the first unread post.

Something small I noticed: the "posts" widget on the right that is supposed to show the topics with the latest activity is sometimes missing threads, even though there have been recent posts. One example is the Daily Deals thread that has been posted to only minutes ago, but it does not show up at all in that list (I am logged in). Could this be an issue that the list isn't updated fast enough?

Seems like I have to log in every time I come to the desktop or mobile site now. Like the "remember me" checkbox is merely a suggestion. Was working fine until last week for mobile and today for desktop. Yes I cleared out cookies and tried again.

​You're not the only one... What browser are you using? Happens with me after the latest Firefox browser update... iOS Safari is good for me though.

It is firefox for desktop site, but I haven't updated it in a few months. For the mobile site it is stock android browser.

​Seems to be some combination of browser and forum updates then... Anyways, Jeff is aware.

Personally I just close my browser less.

​I'm having this issue on Safari iOS, Safari Mac Desktop, and Firefox Desktop (PC).
