The two things that are different from the Scout boards that I kind of miss are: When you made a post at WSN, the display would refresh to your post, so you could see it and the post(s) immediately above it. For reference, it made life easier rather than having to scroll all the way through the thread, down to your post. The second thing is that there was always a link at the bottom of the page that would take you back to the board contents, without having to scroll all the way back up (to get to the "Warrior Nation" or "General" board directory. You could jump back to the directory from the bottom of the page. I tried looking in the profile page to see if it was a personally controllable parameter (either of the above), but didn't find anything. With that in mind, I'm wondering if it's something you Admins guys could add to the layout? It doesn't have to be obnoxious, just basically the same link buttons that are right above the thread at the left side, added to the bottom of the page...(Did this make sense what I just wrote? lol) Here. Here's a picture of what I'm talking about. It's the link to the board hierarchy at the top of any given thread (SEE THE RED ARROW). Would it be possible to add the exact same button to the bottom of each page?

Yeah liked those functions too. Hopefully we can modify.

The more I use this board, the more I wish we had a link to get back to the board menu...As the threads get longer, it's more and more humbug to have to scroll back up the page in order to link back to the thread listing or the main menu...

I suppose there are limitations to this board as I have tried searching.. Although, I'm not the most technically savy so maybe one of the other mod/admins will find it.

Yeah, these boards have their disadvantages and limitations for sure, but it's not as bad as some others. If you mean the board menu link at the bottom of the page, use the drop-down menu that shows "Forum Jump." It's an extra click but better than nothing. Other tricks would be using the back-click on your mouse, or pressing the Backspace key, or Alt + left arrow, or press Home or End to jump to top/bottom, or Pg Up/Down to scroll faster, etc. Not piling on to be an ass, I'm genuinely a damn lazy person -- except when it comes to sharing my lazy-ass tips with good company. Anyone else find good lazy-ass tips?

Oh and I'm also blind apparently, since I've been looking for a "Back to Top" link for a while now... and it's right in front of my face at the bottom of every single post lol.

Well then, that pretty much solves my gripes about this board...and the tip about the "Back to Top" link too--I hadn't noticed that either...duuuuh...I'm not exakly the most brightest bulb on the chrixmas tree, you know....duuuuh...get da ball...jump ON da ball...jump on da guy wid da ball...
