From my reply to Thread home in lists:
What I would rather see is links to the both replied and OP nodes on the preview page when replying.
I was suprised to see that my wish is really implemented, and more. There's even the author name beside the title, another wish on my list (actually, this is close, my wish is to put the author names beside the titles on every possile reply nodes). I thanks very much to the folk who implements this feature. (Update: hopefully, this adds another value to the user experience for all monks.) But, how do you read my mind? :-)

However, I haven't seen this announced in Tidings?

    Joking aside, there's a good chance that if one monk would find something useful, other monks are likely to as well. I simply implemented the changes that I thought would be useful.

    However, I haven't seen this announced in Tidings?

    Good question. The reason it hasn't been announced in Tidings yet is because the change is not actually complete. There's another pending patch, which removes the old Comment on link at the top of the comment on page. Once a god has applied that patch, I'd consider the change complete and ready to be announced.

    And I thank you all for the karma points. I like those much better than eXperience Points! :-) :-) :-)

    Update: The patch has been applied, and the announcement posted.

    A word spoken in Mind will reach its own level, in the objective world, by its own weight
      It's pleasant to see the announcement, first thing in the morning. Thanks again, jdporter! And you got both karma points and XPs.

      The only thing left is I'm afraid this encourages me more to post other wishes on my list in the future. :-) I have many of them, but I won't rush. I'll reconsider before posting.

    jdporter was the one wearing the funny ESP hat, so all praise must be to him!
