I've seen similar at ApolloHoax. If the last read message is old enough, and someone posts a new msg, the clicking on the "New" link takes you to the first post in the thread.

This is very annoying as I have to then guess when the last-read message was.

I don't know how old "old enough" is, though. I just saw it with the Banned Users thread. I've been off-line since 7/15.
