Entering a forum and then returning to forumhome marks the forum read, regardless of the fact that you haven't read any of the unread threads.

Thank you for fixing it finally :D

One little thing, though...if you read all the unread threads in a forum, but don't visit forumdisplay for the forum, the forum is still marked as unread.

For example, there is one unread thread for me in Announcements Discussion. I used the little -> to go to the last post from forumhome, then used the navbar to just go straight back to forumhome from the thread. That forum is still marked as unread for me.

At the moment on forumdisplay it goes through all the threads anyway so there wont be much overhead.
