Automatic Page Refesh?

I generally follow this forum from the "New Posts" page. If I go to one of the Discussions, and then go back, it returns to the "New Posts" page as it was before I went to the new page. Is there any way to have it refresh automatically, similar to the way the Discussion or Questions page on the old forum would?

I think there is a way for me to do it, but it would greatly increase the load on the server, especially once things really get going around here. Hitting F5 will do it when you want it.

There are some browser extensions that do it. You can set a refresh interval.

It's not worth adding the load to the server, but thanks for checking. It was just a little thing.

Here's the extension I use in Chrome.

I follow it from the "unread posts" under the quick links drop down.

Same here.
