When you hover cursor over the post icon on forums, an info popup about the meaning of the icon shows up. However, the part that occupies the same space as VGC Buddy is hidden behind VGC Buddy. I can't imagine this being intended behaviour. See the following picture for illustration of the issue:

This is not exactly a big issue, but I thought I'd report it anyway.

What resolution are you using on your pc?

This reminds me that there's another Buddy-related issue on my laptop: The resolution is so low (well, not really THAT low, but apparently low enough) that while the Buddy is visible, the post icons in it are not, which renders the Buddy practically useless because there's absolutely no way to tell whether the threads in the Buddy have new posts in them or not. I'm guessing this will get fixed as a side-product though, if the site's mobile functionality is getting improved anyway.

Simple, take the class of that pop-up and up the z-index to 9999999.

:P
