In other words, whenever a long posts' been quoted or a lot of quotes have been bundled together, this comes into effect.

Likewise, someone using the code function and puts a whopper in for someone else to debug would also result in this.

What's wrong with our computer scrollbars?

There's an 'End' button on your keyboard for a reason.

Using the same logic, therefore there is no need for the arrow keys because there's Numlock and the numpad.

It's about improvement and making things easier, not just making them possible.

That takes you all the way to the bottom of the page, and I don't think that's the suggestion being made.

Either way, yeah I think it could be more convenient, but it really only depends on how easy it would be to code it.

Well, what I think the layout of the scroll bar would look like would be something similar to this:

RandomPerson wrote:
*Insert lack of interest here*
*Scrollbar starts here
^
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
V
*Scrollbar ends here














Bored yet?

















Now?




















Okay stupid quote end.


The size of the scollbar that I provided would be the size of the actual quote box, thus saving moar room.

The problem with this is that it requires evaluating quote length for all quotes over a certain length. Not something I want to do

:lock:
