Suggestion thread highlighting

It used to be unread threads were bolded. If I read the thread it would be unbolded. Then if someone posted in that thread when I went back it would be bold again. Now it seems when I read a thread it stays unbolded even if someone posts in it again. Is there a setting for this because I liked it the old way.
 
Yeah, I have the same issue, although, I think I brought it on myself!

My inquisitive mind wanted to know what it would look like if I clicked on the "mark forums read" button that I just noticed. It resulted in not having any threads highlighted at all, new posts or not. I wasn't keen on that so I clicked the button again to go back to the way it used to be, but alas, I can't reverse the change! How can I go back to having threads with new posts appearing in BOLD please? Thanks!
 
I think I just figured it out, once I re-clicked the button, new posts (made after I started messing around) started to show up in bold again, but the "old" new posts were still left un-highlighted, in a couple of hours I'll be back to normal I think.

Cheers!
 
I looked a little closer and it actually appears to be 3 levels of boldness now
