Hi,
I just noticed a problem when using "Report to a moderator" option for a forum post:
After sending the notification to the moderator the website should reload the thread with the notified message entry.
But:
Instead of showing the notified message my FireFox27.0.1 loaded the last opened thread. As I had several tabs opened in FF it loaded the thread that I opened in the latest tab.
Moreover it showed that "Moderator notified" announcement on top of that wrong thread…
Just to demonstrate/verify that effect I notified the moderator again:
Thread title is marked with red line.
After pressing "Notify the moderator" the website reloaded and I landed here:
Yes, I did notify the moderator.
NO, I didn't notify the moderator on the "Feedback on NI Discussion Forum"!
Yes, the latest opened tab is of course the "Feedback…" forum as I wanted to write this feedback on NI discussion forum!
The tab opened before is marked too…

I think I saw that this morning as well. I got confused because I thought I might have reported to the wrong message thread. I wound up reporting the message again. (This was IE8). From your screenshot, it looks like were were reporting on the same message thread.
I often load up several pages at a time (especially when things are running slower to load, see Poor site performance). So I load up a few links, go back to the first one, and by then it should be loaded ready to lead. I probably did that this morning as well, thus your explanation of last loaded page, makes sense to me.

This has been going on for I don't know how long, but it's a long time. Personally, in the list of problems with the forums, this ranks at a relatively low spot for me, since the reports do appear to actually be filed correctly.

I have also seen this issue for a very long time. Same thing happens when I start to reply to a post and then cancel (goes to the last thread I opened).
