Would it not make sense to allow more than one FEN position in a post instead of having to make a post for each position you want to show?

Originally posted by aging blitzerThe main down side to that is if I say, "see page 17 of this thread for details", my page 17 is not the same as someone with different settings.
so why not, like some other forums do, let the users decide how many posts they want to see on a page, by a setting in "My Settings" ?

Originally posted by aging blitzerThe date and time change with the time zone of the user, but a post numbering system would do the trick...
so we need a unique post number listed with the date/time of the post.
then you can say "see post number x for details"
that would make it easier than having to give the date/time of the post you are referring to

All the information is stored there.
An interface to enter all the info might be clunky, so I wonder if it would be possible to show a link to be copied under each forum post. The writing could be quite small. There could also be loads of better ways of implementing it. That was the first thing that came to mind.
