Heh ... just noticed that the Mark Forum Read doesn't seem to be working in this forum though. I select it and the threads remain unread, rather than change to read. I'm using the earth-tone skin if that makes a difference (I think it's galled "The Guild" but I'm not positive).

As noted previously, this is a bug with vBulletin which only occurs on forums with subfora. The forum is being marked read for you, but the page is not refreshing. If you hit refresh, the forum will properly display as 'marked.' As this is a vBulletin bug, there is nothing I can do about it until the software is patched. vBulletin have been aware of the bug for a year and a half, but have not yet fixed it so I wouldn't hold my breath for a resolution anytime soon.

Ah yes, I'd forgotten. Sorry to have wasted more of your time.

No need to apologize, I had actually forgotten about it. When you posted I went back over to vBulletin to see if they had patched it since April. My optimistic enthusiasm was not rewarded.

Under my profile and contacts I can't seem to add my Steam account to it. I'm not sure why it won't work. I could add my msn account, so I don't know if it's me doing something wrong or not.

Are you using the right Steam account info? Many people try and use their Steam name instead of their profile. Profiles are always numbers, unless you've changed it manually, which most haven't. See this post for more details.
