Selecting the last few pages of a thread

[dr_zoidberg]

I was just wondering if it would be possible to put up the links for the last few pages of a thread like the first ten.

eg. for a thread with 50 pages:
Instead of
Thread name (1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ... Last Page)

have
Thread name (1 2 3 4 5 ... 46 47 48 49 Last Page)

I know this doesn't apply to most threads, but for the bigger ones it's easier if you want to read a few pages back from the last page.

I would like to second this motion

I think with the amount of rep you have, anything you want NSU's will do happily.

I would like to put 1 x positive vote in for this change. It would be extremely handy

I'm going to oppose this motion just to be different.

[Ozeagle]

I'm going to support it to be the same.

[Katling]

I would just like to be able to jump between pages and get the page I'm looking for

Whether it will be done or not. I must admit Dr's message formatting is in a high class. Very clean and informative. Whether it will be materialised will depending on how hard the hack will be and the free time I have. Also how long my TODO list is.

If it's too hard, or if you're too busy that's ok. I was just wondering if it was possible. Thanks for the compliment :)
PS: I notice that you're glowing now.

I know you are a very busy man nsu, but will this ever happen? It would be very very handy to have.

Perhaps nsu will do it if we all buy something from his little corner store :p

Horseshoe heartily endorses this service and/or product :D

I like the way nsu keeps rearranging the way your trophies are setup :p Too bad it doesn't make a difference which way he puts 'em :)

I also have to say that this is a magnificent idea and would save so much time. Well done zoidy and letz hope it can get underway :)

i live by this.

but, on this other forum I'm a member of, they have something like zoidy's suggestion, and it's really great especially for those really humungo threads (we have one that's a couple of thousand pages!)
