Been out of pocket for a few weeks with some health issues, family stuff (vacation and school starting for all the kids) and work. Getting back into the flow, so hopefully will catch up with content posts soon!
In the meantime, I've uploaded new post viewing logic - should be most visible when browsing topics with lots of replies. Let me know what you think.

Looks good from the little I save seen so far! Hope all is now well.

Thanks for letting us know, Jeremy. Hope RL settles down soon.
I do like the indentation of replies, and here’s some feedback if it can be improved.
When viewing the forum on my phone, the threads with a lot of indented posts are going off the screen and I am unable to horizontally scroll to read entire posts.

Thanks Eorl - can you send me a screenshot from your phone of where this is occurring? I've tested on a few mobile devices but don't have a wide range so I am sure I missed a few things.

I like the left margin indent but the poster's avatar is now tiny & not that prominent.
I literally don't navigate the forum other than via the recent activity sidebar on the right, but when I just went to look (& post) in the "Wonders" thread it's got me right back at 2009 with no option to skip to the most recent page/post. It's got the loading bar at the bottom, but this thread is absolutely enormous...

I've bumped up the size of the reply avatars, let me know how that sits with you. I liked the thin header on replies, (less overwhelming the body of the text) so I will keep fiddling to see if I can get it just right. Keep the feedback coming!
I am adding a "jump to end of thread" link as I agree that it is needed. Usually the "Recent Activity" links should take you there unless you had never visited the thread "before" (ie before I added the view tracking code). If you click on it again Khamûl it should take you to the end not the beginning...?
Eorl - I think I fixed the mobile page display, let me know if you are still seeing it.

Something else I've noticed: all account signatures have gone.

I'm experimenting with de-cluttering the threads. They are still "there", just not shown (for a while now). Someone noticed! So perhaps they are missed.

I didn't actually notice the full signature (for myself) just "BH"; which I added recently as I'm too lazy to sign-off with BH in the body of the message.

I’m so sorry I didn’t see this until just now. It all looks fine now Jeremy. Perhaps you made some changes already?
