New poster! Is there any way on these boards to mark where you last read in a multi-page thread to avoid having to find your place again when you revisit the thread?

Nope. They used to have a bookmark feature a long time ago that was great, but they trashed it. You can do a search for your own posts, but the results are spotty.

Thanks, Matt. I love reading the long Follies threads periodically on the Broadway board, but between sessions I forget where I left off on each one.

If you click on the most recent post column instead of the thread title, at least it brings you to the last page of the thread. that helps a little.

If we're not having fun, then why are we doing it? These are DISCUSSION boards, not mutual admiration boards. Discussion only occurs when we are willing to hear what others are thinking, regardless of whether it is alignment to our own thoughts.
