What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:
Since “endless page” mode was introduced, it’s the problem with the any long discussion (this one was patchnotes). There are no interface elements that can allow me to escape to the top (or bottom) of the page. I can scroll up, seemingly endlessly, I can scroll down, and until I reach the last (first) message of the thread, I cannot leave the discussion!
How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?
Since dynamic pages was introduced.
Steps to make it happen again
Click “new mesages” in any long thread (Patch notes for me).
Observe semi-endless page up and down, without interface elements to leave it.
How long has the forums been broken? I cant even remember anymore. Asked about fixing it long long time ago, but it was not a priorty. This is annoying.
And yes, i refuse to use older version on something that really should have been fixed year ago.
This is a bit off-topic, but for some reason when my chrome updated, it disabled uBlock because it thought it had become “possibly corrupted.” I repaired the extension, which wiped my filter, so I had to paste it in again. Everything’s working, but it took some extra steps. Anyway, thanks for this, it’s very helpful! (Even if I have to manually fix it after every chrome update :P)
