I maybe-it-could-be-written-more-clearly version of that is on the "Board how-to" page, under "How to Navigate".

A thread to discuss naming threads, board policy, new thread suggestions, and anything else that has to do with board administration and maintenance. Guaranteed to include lively debate and polls. Natter discouraged, but not deleted.

So it is. And yes, is probably could be written a little more clearly. It's technically incorrect as well, because it says if your URL ends in 123, you're viewing post 123 at the moment, when strictly you're viewing the page that begins with post 123. Minor point though.
How about I do another rewrite on the How-To section, and the FAQ links to it: "for how to leap around threads, moving 1000 posts in a single bound, or skipping to the point exactly 50 from the end, see the How-To page" or similar?

I have nothing productive to add to this discussion. I will say, however, that I love you, John, but it's incredibly disturbing when you say "dudes".

Secret message to Miss Lizard. Get on AIM now, or I will say not only "dude" but "dudette"!

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Re disturbing dudes: apparently there are plans for a sequel to Dude, Where's My Car?, to be titled Seriously, Dude, Where's My Car?

I've always imagined numerous sequels to I Know What You Did Last Summer and I Still Know What You Did Last Summer ending up with I Really, Honestly, Do Really Know What You Did Last Summer, Why Won't You Believe Me?

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
