I'm sure ns has post id's so why not make a link to the exact post id? I like to be able to click a link to read the full quote or what someone said before. It's a common thing on other websites. And why is there no quick post? I wonder how much bandwidth ns wastes each month by reloading a new page every time someone wants to make a post. This is just the web designer in me speaking.

I mean a link that will take you to that post. If I click the link the page will automatically scroll to the spot where the post is. It used to be done by adding a simple code to the section you wanted and to a link but I believe it can be done with AJAX or similar now without reloading the page and adding a nice scroll effect. If I had an example I would post it. I'm sure whoever is doing the coding now knows what I'm talking about.

ohhh i get what youre saying. im pretty sure nopoles is our main coder, and also the karma system uses ajax i believe, so he might already have some knowledge on it. i think it would be a nice addition.
