when i open the alerts pop-up, the number of alerts go away
however, the little circle underneath doesnt, unless i click open the alert
but i think the quoted post alert doesnt go away unesls i open it, even though ive already read it
i saw the differences
now when i opened the alerts it didnt mark them as read, bu t the number of alerts went away :hmm
it showed the change before i cleared my cache and cookies, but its the same after i cleared
i have it set so it doenst mark read when i open the popup or te alerts page, so it only marks read when i click it
but with the article ones, it doenst go away even if i click it
only if i mark it read
