can we please shorten the longer threads (post your recent purchases) no one ever need to click on page 143 out of 365. Its always just the last page. the one, two skip a few, 99 100 idea would be amazing. such as the long forums on the site http://www.xs650.com/forum/tags.php?tag=bobber.
Thank you,
Pat T.

Agreed, the length of threads really is not charming to NS.

Condensed threads would be so nice. I'd like to have Mousseau check into this. As much as I like PYLP - the thread is such a damn eye sore.

If it just showed like (page 1,2....200,201) you get the point, that would be a lot better

Yeah, although I'm not so sure the solution is that simple. I think it's important to find a way to easily id these long threads

It really shouldn't be on the top...

We have over 400 "urgent" bugs and tweaks that need to be completed -- which is a lot when you consider how complicated of a website NS is.

Lets definitely ask the boys how complicated it is. Maybe if its not too bad we can sneak it in after this next two week sprint we go on.

We actually brainstormed some ideas tonight. We're thinking of adding a . per 50 pages, so something like this ->

Post your Latest Purchase [ 1 2 3 4 5 .......... 571 572 573 574 575 ]

I agree, but I'd cut it off after 2 lines of pages so its still easy to see what the seriously long threads are.

We just rolled it out -- poke around the forums and let us know what you think! We're hoping we can make the final tweaks (if they need to be made) today.

Never thought I'd say it, but I miss seeing the monstrosity of PLYP in a weird way. Feels kinda empty, but looks so clean!

Like I said, ideally the page listing should be 2 lines instead of 1. The space is there so it might as well be utilized.

This is really tough to implement though, as there are a TON of variables that come into play. Web vs mobile, browser versions, zoom %, thread length, etc.
