This is pretty much what you want to know DaveyDave @IPSWICH HIGASHI. I think when we spoke about some of this ages ago, I also think you're looking for quick tips on how to start threads and topics. I've seen you create one which hopefully was pretty easy?
The other way to read stuff (or how I do it most of the time) is by using the 'Unread Content' button. On PC it is near the top right just above the forums. On your mobile browser it is the one of the 3 big buttons at the top so you can't go wrong.
If you're interested I have all 4 ways to come here (PC, mobile browser, App, Tapatalk) but 95% of my time I use mobile browser because I am out and about. You get to see the smart theme view alongside all the other stuff thats here, like Videos, Calendar, etc. All it requires you to do is use your index finger and touch Chrome on your phone. I always have a tab open for it so i'm straight in, so for other people that have recently said its hard....no, sorry, its just damn lazy (or genuinely you have fat thumbs that can't operate a phone. If that's the case I don't know how you play video games )
