Tab/title shows 1 new event/message, but all the characters have been checked and are grey.

Shows up both and opera and chrome.

I actually haven't even been getting the tab notification in the past few days anymore. I really like the feature, being able to tell at a glance while I'm doing other things if there's anything going on. I wasn't sure if it was still in the experimental stage and still being tweaked or what.

Tab notifications have been around for a while, but auto-refresh is new. My guess is that the two are suddenly not playing nice together.

They have been around a while for specific character pages (indicating exactly how many things have happened while it's open), but I think the notification for the character list page was fairly new; it wasn't happening for me until sometime after the automatic refresh was added (and I think changed to not-testing status). It does make sense that they might not be working together for some reason, though. The other notifications on the specific character page is working just fine for me.

Hmm, possibly? Maybe 1. I didn't pay that much attention to how long its been going on. It think maybe it broke about... a week after the last update... Maybe? Man my sense of time is so flawed.

I think I know the suspected reason of the problem, it's related to the change which made mentor characters (on intro) visible on the main character list for people who have them. But I didn't notice the problem during the tests.
Hello, can somebody visit the IRC so I could talk about details?

I think it's fixed for good.

Many thanks to Akulli, Aduah and Sherman for helping me in finding the cause of a bug.
