I have finally lost patience.

The forums barely work? Instead of going to the first page (page 1) it instead goes to say:
Thread was 275 pages.
It would go to page 274. This problem is happening on all my other devices (using the Safari browser). The forums are fked up and when I try and go back one page it will fk itself over and say Invalid address, or "Nothing to see here". Going forward one page will result it reloading the same page?!. Bear in mind this also happens on my wife's S6 Edge (used as a test). Is this a new format? You should revert to last comment instead of having to keep scrolling back. The VWVortex forum uses a first and last format, PH is extremely unintuitive on mobiles and the forums are a pain in the arse on iPhone. I am 100% convinced it has nothing to do with my browser as all other forums work perfectly. Also, it may bug and show another post in place of the OP's post, which leads to much confusion.

Please don't tell me this is how it's meant to work!

Hi giuliatz2,

Thank you for your feedback. What you have described is indeed unintended behaviour.

To fix this, what you will need to do is go to 'My Preferences' and under 'Topic Display' select 'Ascending' (selecting 'Descending' also works).

This issue has been raised, and a fix to stop this happening to other users will be made in the near future.

A bit more digging has shown we are also experiencing issues with selecting 'Descending'.....but 'Ascending' works fine!

For now, my advice is that anyone who is experiences issues with this, goes to 'My Preferences' and selects 'Ascending' as Topic Display until the issue is fixed. I shall reply on this thread when the fix is live.
