We used to have that button on the old forums to bring up all new topics and new posts to old topics. Is that an option on the new boards?

I know they are there, but they don't quite do what the "View Posts since last visit" button did. The "View new posts" is closest, but not quite there. I used the "Mark Forums Read" button, and it shows no new posts. But after that, if I click on the "View New Posts" it still brings up the same posts that were there before I hit the "Mark Forums Read" button.

I clicked on the "View New Posts" button, read a posting, hit "Board Index", clicked on "View New Posts" button, and the same message I just read was there as if I hadn't read it. Hmmm, maybe a log off and on would work...

Okay, logging off and back on made a difference. The only post shown was a new one just posted.

Maybe you can just refresh the first page after marking as read. I am just making that up though.

This still doesn't answer the question "Who ate my peanuts?"

Using my uber l33t skilz I h4x0r3d all your accounts and now all your peanuts belong to me. If you want them back, send me 1000 peanuts and I'll send them back. Wait a sec! If I have all your peanuts you don't have any left for extortion. Give me a day or two to rethink this diabolical plot.
