Is is possible for a moderator to fix the forums so the back button works with out beeing a huge pain in the butt. I makes searching for threads horribly painful. This could be part of the problem when people just keep posting the same topics over and over and over again just to have them locked or never be found again and thus locked.

I know I should have been a brain surgeon.

As in the back button on your browser or the one on the forum page?

if its the browser one, how in the hell do you think that they will be able to change that?

as for web changes it cant be done by mods, only the forum administrator

Perhaps at the same time Rich could change it so "Just this board" is the default option, and that on the search results page it remembers the scope you picked when you do another search. It's irritating trying to do multiple searches on one board when you have to keep going back a page to select "Just this board".

Do I here anyone else complaining Benjamin?....no. Pfft no pleasing some people is there...

What would be useful however is the ability to link to a specific post in the thread. This is possible by getting the id of the current element already but a link to save us having to root through the DOM using the WebDev plugin.
