I hope this is the right subforum for this post. When I have the Pathfinder RPG subforum selected, if it's on "focus" I can see a list of focused threads but without focus it shows up as empty. Other subforums, including those within Pathfinder RPG (rules questions and advice for example) work as they should.
It has been this way for some time but haven't bothered to ask for help. It's kinda frustrating though.
It's the same way regardless of which computer I am and which browser (firefox/chrome/iexplorer) I use, but seems tied to my account. It's the same way with my other alias selected (on the same account that is).
Does anyone have an idea of what the issue is? Is it a setting issue? It seems so but can't remember changing anything.
Thanks for any aid!

You've collapsed the entire Pathfinder forum, which normally tells the messageboards that you're uninterested in seeing any threads in that forum and all its subforums. So when navigating directly to the Pathfinder RPG forum, which is a subforum of the Pathfinder forum, it decides you don't really want to see any of the threads in there and hides them.
Focus means "show me only threads with 'x new' or dots", ignoring the forum-collapsing logic described above.
It's not exactly a bug but it's not working the way you'd expect so I'm going to file it as a bug. I'm not sure when we'll get around to fixing it. For now you could expand the Pathfinder forum and collapse any of its subforums you'd like to skip.
Oh, thanks! I understand then. :)

FWIW, the way things are now is great for me. Occasionally I browse other sub forums from my usual ones, but I generally have most of them closed. I use focus to keep tabs on those few conversations I may be interested in, without having to remember which rarely visited area of the forums it was in.
Ah. I misunderstood, sorry.
