Should it perhaps say "...you're only allowed 255"
It says that already, just above the text box. No need to repeat ourselves.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

John H. - I'd like you to look at something. Is your profile email OK?

John - I sent you an email to the address you wrote me from recently (not the profile addy). I have to get to bed, but if you could look it over, I'd greatly appreciate it.

Sorry, Jon, had to go on an inspection tour of the New Building at work, plus I'm desperately confused about where I might have written to you from. It's probably gone to the home address?
Write to me using webmail@johnhorner.net and that should bounce to both work and home.

Request:
After being Grey for a week ... I would love to be able to tell the board I like to go to post 2050 , then 2100 etc. like in People's forum. This would let me really skip and skim effeciently. now -- i read 2000 posts... I can't help it...

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Add &post_id=#### where #### is the post you want to go to in the topic. It's not the most elegant solution, but it will work in the short term.

It's not too difficult to code, but I'm concerned about screen clutter.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You don't even have to add &post_id. Dollars to donuts it will already be there. You just change the current ID to the number of the post you want to see.

Wrod. That's the basis of the John H Natter Diet. It's especially easy because the post number is the last thing in the URL (when reading a thread).
The hard part about the JHND is that I'm often sitting here counting on my fingers and screwing up my face and scratching my head because subtracting 50 from 1115 is not easy for me. I just can't do arithmetic.
I'm secretly hoping that my Diet wil become a board feature, one day. My implementation would be a discreen little field added to the "Read New | Message center | First | Previous | Next | Last | Recent" section, which would say "most recent [FIELD] posts" or similar.
