Yes it is. I am on a mission to improve site performance, and the thread page was a big offender.

The aesthetics may change, but the function will not.

To get to the first post, click the thread title.
To get the last post, click the last posted date.

Honestly now, how many times did you ever start viewing a thread from the middle?

well-if i knew it was only at page 2 last time i checked the thread, then i'd click on page 2, and i used to, when i got to the end of a page, press the delete/back button on my keyboard, then go onto the next page-so when i wanted to get back to the thread list all i'd need to do would be to press that button. bascially...😛

Actually,I often started viewing a thread in the middle,heh.But I can still do that,it's just one click more than it used to be.No big deal.😀

I actually prefer the 'last page' button, because I was used to clicking on the Heading to go to the first page...which is still there...oh damn it! Ohwell, can you make the heading of the thread goto the middle page😀

Geez all, give the site a break. I for one apprec. the faster loading of forum threads and once I have chkd the first posts all I need to be current is the last post which the link will direct you to and given some 13-15 posts per page that in itself should be enough to pick up the thread.
The saving in bandwidth and server tasking would be considerable.
Well done Russ

I'm really not feeling well right now but when I came onto the forums just now my head twirled around inside and I felt worse. (i'm trying to say I personally don't like the new layout.)
