DU4 Bug Reports

then you didn't actually have any new items to be notified about.

This can happen occasionally if you switch tabs or use your browser's back button -- you may have had notifications previously which you clicked through to, but if you then back up, the My Stuff button might recall the state it was in previously and light up even though you already cleared the notification.

Or, if you switch tabs, the My Stuff button might already be lit up from a previous page load, but when you open the menu the interior buttons won't be lit up because you already cleared out those notifications.

Currently this is in the "minor annoyance" category because a) it's relatively rare, and b) improving performance in this area will require a lot of technical shenanigans which we don't really want to delve into at the moment (since we're focusing on more big picture stuff).

So in a nutshell, hopefully this won't happen very often and you won't find it too bothersome. If it ends up being a big problem, we'll definitely look into it more closely.
