Probably means you've read the same joke lot of times? Or the same page twice?

Stu - can you let me know if any more crop up? I *think* that should be sorted now, but some threads you've viewed before the bug fix might still generate a negative number.

For anyone wondering WTF this is all about - I am trying to sort feature 296. I think I've got it sussed, but if there's still a bug, it's hard to diagnose, because the first thing anyone does when they see a negative number is to click it to find out what's happened.

If you *do* have a negative number against any of your watched threads, and can avoid the temptation to click it, give me a shout ;-)

Haven't seen negatives, other than in a few forums commenting on it, but in last few weeks have seen the watch list not refresh/clear when I click & read the specific thread.

I also had it for the 1500 in 2019 thread this morning, but as you say, I clicked it to see what it meant!

I've worked out how I can see who was being presented with negative numbers; and there was no-one since about 8am this morning, which is when I put my fix in place. I've tidied up the ones pre-fix, so this will hopefully not come back.
