    A while ago, I changed the tracking of new posts from cookie based to database tracking. This allows much better tracking statistically. This is why the current "New Posts" view is the way it is.

    I don't know if there is a way to customise this. My belief is that there is not.

    But like 182 said, there is the 'Mark Forums Read' option, which I do all the time to clear it.
