It used to be that if one commented on any post, that post went to the "top of the list" so to speak. "Pings" would do the same thing. This no longer appears to be happening....or do I have a setting wrong? Any ideas?

I’ve noticed that too. The thread remains regardless of posts. You aren’t the only one.

I think FR may not be "refreshing" like it used to. I can't be sure, because I'm on a brand new computer, so it may be this machine.

I can close FR right now - 6:55 am, and come back in 3 hours and it'll be 'zackly the same as right now.

I'd like to know if others are experiencing this, and having to manually refresh.

I’ve always had to manually refresh on here.

Of course, while visiting this site.....but before when I'd close out to go about my business, I'd come in and be right up to the minute at that time. No mas, for whatever reason

The only time I had to manually refresh was when I was using MSN Explorer (from Qwest DSL service) on XP. When I switched to Vista, I no longer had to manually refresh (not sure if it was MSN or Vista that changed). I have never had to manually refresh on Mozilla or Explorer on XP, Vista or 7.

If your bookmark for FR is breaking news -
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/breaking-news/index?tab=articles

it won’t change much

If your bookmark is latest articles -
http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/*/index

it should be up to date (or you need to change something in your browser settings)

Thanks to all....but I think "paulycy" has hit the nail on the head.

Some of the comments....while not helpful....were certainly entertaining!

Don’t question vanity. Question authority.
