I'll try to say it slow. :-)

If you wanted to go to post # 47 on this thread, you'd have to count down 47 from the top. I'm calling for a column next to the name of the person who posted, which column has the numbers of the posts, one number for each post, starting with one and incrementing by one, so that the 47th post in the thread has the number "47" next to it. Then you can easily find post #47.

Because often I will see a thread and say "It has 97 posts now; it used to have 92. I want to start reading with post 93." And I was suggesting a way to make it easy for me (and other people who think like me) to do so.

NOW do you get it? :oP
