On the forum homepage, the sub-forums do their usual thing of showing green to show that there are new posts within them, but when you visit that forum, no new posts are highlighted.

Of course I could look at the dates/time shows me the new posts, but I like the green Very Happy

When this happens to me I curse a bit and delete the Nfohump-related cookies. Then it fixes itself for many days.

The problem might be related to some session issue. See if you visit the page you get a session (a cookie saves that information) so that the server knows who the fuck you are. But the server won't actually keep track of you forever.. so if you load nfohump, then beat your limp dick to some midget porn and come back 6 hours later you'll see plenty of green links from when you visited the page, but now if you enter a forum none of them will be read anymore, because your session expired, contrary to the feel of shame for fapping to midgets!

I don't have this problem. What CPU do you have and what RAM speeds are you using?

Thanks Pump,
So should I clear cookies etc..? It happens when I visit on my mobile (running chrome browser) and also my laptop (using firefox).

^^ Do you have a problem?

Both posts of yours and just trolling, have you nothing better to do on the forum?

I always attributed these problems to bad cookie/session management, as pumpy said, probably a bug down in the specific version of phpBB we use here. The issue you describe usually goes away for a while after clearing cookies, until the next time.
