How the Hell do I:
(Preview)
Make it so that clicking on a topic takes me to the most recent unread (by me) post in that topic? I know clicking on the most recent poster's name takes me to the latest post, but clicking on the topic just takes me to the first post in the topic, whether or nit I've already read it.
