~~Pardon Our Dust.~~

As many of you know (I'm sure), we can go to "More Posts By This User" and find a specific post. Then, from there, we can link people to that specific post. The problem is, it's hard to find some posts at times. Currently it's an issue of "Link to thread page" and then tell them to scroll down.

Is there any chance we could get a simple "Link to This Post" button, which would copy the specific #postnumber link? It'd be really nice for sending links to specific posts, which I do (or try to do) rather frequently. It could just sit quietly next to the Date/Time of posting, or maybe off to the left. It'd be similar to HBO's "Permalink" option on their news posts.

Anyone else think this would win the day?

Yeah this definitly would be a useful feature and it wouldn't be to hard to implement since each post already has a unique anchor tag.

Well, good to know. Although I'm not sure if Achronos cares about your insomnia, Crow. :\

However, he would be a nice guy to add this feature, if it wasn't too difficult. :D

Proof there is a God.
My RT account page.
My Grifball user page.
So if you really want to get to know me, you're welcome to add me anywhere.

Yeah, I agree, this would be beneficial across the board. RT forums (and I know I shouldn't be comparing) implements the post-number into each post, and even uses it when you click "quote." It wouldn't necessarily have to be in the quote feature, but it would be useful if you wanted to refer to a specific post by number.

It's a good idea, however there is no major problem with it as its not used often and you can always quote that users post or the page number.

Well, we may have to second guess ourselves then.

This would be great to have, and I'm sure it wouldn't be an arduous task because of seperate post IDs (although there could be something under my radar that would hinder development.).
