'Back' not remembering page location on new forums

After cruising around a bit more, it seems that when I hit back on these forums, it isn't just going back to a snapshot of the page as I last visited (which is what the old ones and any other forums I frequent do), but it is actually refreshing the page. I have to assume this is decided by coding in the new forums. Not liking it.
I don't like it either. I liked being able to leave it in the middle of a page and it remembering where I left off. Refreshing every time is inconvenient.
I agree. I've taken to just opening every section and then every thread I want to check out in seperate tabs before I start reading even one message.
Don't count your weasels before they pop dink!
I'm not having any problem with this, and I've seen it mentioned many times. Every time I've hit my back button (Firefox 3.5.1), it's taken me back to where I was before loading the subforum/post.

I updated to 3.5 and it now works MUCH better. The page still refreshes, but it does indeed bring me to the same position on the page that I was on before, making it much easier to move on to the "next" thread.|

Thanks for specifying version, Agg. I probably wouldn't have even thought of it.
Help > Check for updates... FTW!
Good call on the update. I think I was at 3.1, and now at 3.5 it is working more like it used to. Still takes a few seconds to reload the page, but at least it is remembering where it was.
Anybody else experiencing this? Most webpages, when I hit 'Back', it remembers what portion of the page I was last on. Now on the new forums, it only ever goes back to the top. Perhaps not a huge issue, but somewhat annoying. Using Firefox if it makes a difference.
