I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

That's fine. I see "Like this" with the "this" blue, and underlined.

Also, the link works for me, too--brings me to a page that loads.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Can you see this link, Cindy? And this?

I got no suggestions, really. Something between the server and you doesn't like the full link. Yet, it's not the domain, nor much of the path.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Could your firewall be as simplistic as blocking a link that has "ad" in the link text?

1. a link

2. an ad

What about a direct link to an image?

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Yeah, an ad blocker might just do that.

Nope.

I'm assuming that was all you put in your post, Dana? If you also included a link, I'm not seeing it.

I have gone directly to images plenty of times before, though.

Unrelated to Cindy's errant firewall -- there's some design that needs be done.

The request has been made for breadcrumbs to assist with folder navigation. I also think that presenting a folder list at the top of the thread screen (folders at the same level as the thread) will cut down on back and forth.

What thinkest you? And, Jon, how would you present this?
