Default How To Bold The Subject Area?

I've been noticing each time I submit a thread that my subject/thread area is not highlighted/bolded as the others...

Can someone help me out...I also would like my subject to be clearly seen!!!

Thanx!

Its bold because you havent read it. And of course you have read your own post.

Feel stupid yet?

Hehe. Actually I've been finding lately after I make a post/thread it stays bolded. I have to go back in and read it again to get it registered as read.

Kind of annoying.

Mine's the opposite...after submitting my thread and gets posted in the "new posts" area, it's NOT BOLDED at all...that's why i'm a little confused...

But my point is that is what is supposed to happen. Your setup is working just fine.

You make a post and the thread should NOT be bold because it assumes you've read your own posts.

But for everyone else that thread is now bolded. So those of us that have not read your post will see it come up bolded.

hmm ... but why is it that some topics I haven't read are not bolded? My guess is that whichever thread I read, it automatically assumes anything older (ie. below it) is read also. Correct?

Maybe its because you revisited the site again?
Everytime I come back, it seems to unmark(unbold) everything and only bolds whatever is new.

The only stupid thing in this thread is your comment, totally uncalled for.

Thanx for sticking up for the newbies like me! I thought I was the only one that sensed Cough's sarcastic comment...

You can be such a jerk sometimes. The poster asked a legitimate question. You gave him a quick and concise answer then for no reason attempt to belittle the guy for asking a question.
