I use it to clean up the forums I dont read as I like to have it all clean like that but it isn't that important

JayJay: lol its a real accent you gentleman's sausage
Currently I have 43 unready posts, would it mark them as read and that counter will be reset? If so I think it would be a usefull feature, otherwise the unread post button will become useless as its full of posts you cant be bothered reading.
It marks all items in the "Unread posts" as read. Say if you come back from a weekend away and the forums been busy and theres 100+ items in the unread posts section, clicking on the "Mark Forum as Read" button will clear that so you don't have to do it one by one.
I think for those who use the Unread Posts section its very useful!
