Reply Post Notification options for longer threads...

How about a 'jump to last page' option?

[Voltec]

For those of us using slow to very slow connections that would like to keep up with posts that we have participated in, it would help greatly if there was a 'Jump to last page' option in the email notification. Right now I have to click on the discussion URL and then click on the last page on the longer threads. That is two pages to load when all I needed was the second one.

Now I admit that within a week I am not going to care much about this issue anymore - my ship will be back and I will have my cable modem again... but surely I am not the only one with a slow connection?

Just my thoughts...

I think you're asking for a "Show only new posts" option for the control panel. Yes, even for people with a fast connection, it would be handy in those long Forum 3 threads.

I don't think it's a programming challenge as much as it might be a resources issue. I'd be interested to hear Brett's comments.

I don't have as much a problem on surfing them from the indexes because I can jump to the last page of the thread from the index... but I can't from the email notifications. They only list the thread main page so I have to wait for that page to load and then jump to the last page of the thread.
