Option?? That's a standard, default, built-in feature of every forum software there is, and if it isn't included, it's either a bug or an oversight. What good is reading through tons and tons of replies if we ourselves have to keep track of the last one we read? The forum should do that already.
Sorry there sweetcheeks (

), but automatically shooting you to the last reply in a thread is not something every forum system on the planet does. Every forum system on the planet has a *link* to take you to the last reply in a thread, and *a few* even do the last reply you read. The old system did not work correctly (and was severely annoying), and we're not enabling anything remotely similar until it works properly.
Fact is, everyone got used to a broken system, and now that the broken has been taken out it's left them in confusion lol. Everyone keeps asking 'when will feature x be put back in? can we have feature x?' We've answered these questions so many times over the last two weeks that it's begun to melt my brain. Give the search function of the forums a go and you'll probably find your answer.
Not trying to be mean or a scoundrel but every time we post updates about the forums we get a flood of the same replies. We're only human and can only work so fast. If you would like to open a discussion for other members about new features or features that you really miss that didnt make the cut for the update,
please start a new post. Future posts about forum updates will be heavily moderated to remove replies for feature requests and questions about when features are returning or are going to be implemented.
