Finding Post Numbers
Is there a quick way to find post numbers that doesn't involve sifting through the source code for the page? A few other forums I'm part of have a button that links directly to a post so I don't have to tell someone "Scroll down to ___'s 3rd comment" if I link them to something, because I'm too lazy to pull up the View Source page.
Random thing I saw on Facebook wrote:Just make sure to compare your results from Weapon Bracket Table and Elevator Load Composition (Dragon Magazine #12) to the Perfunctory Armor Glossary, Version 3.8 (Races of Minneapolis, pp. 183). Then use your result as input to the "DM Says Screw You" equation.
If you look just above and to the left of the post's text (above and to the right of the author box, basically where your avatar is looking), you'll see a small page icon. If you've seen that post it's white, if not it's yellow-orange-ish. This icon also happens to be a permalink to the post it's attached to. Copypasta. For example, your post is http://tgdmb.com/viewtopic.php?p=268618#268618

1) Good design practices.
2) How to be a zookeeper for hyper-intelligent shit-flinging apes.
You can fake it by fudging the "start=" bit at the end of the URLs for the 2nd and subsequent pages. E.g. the 4th post on the play test thread is:
http://tgdmb.com/viewtopic.php?t=53379&start=4

One casting every six seconds at CL9 gives you a bit more than 40 liters per second, which is comparable to the flow rates of some small, but serious, rocket engines. Six items running at full blast through a well-engineered engine will put you, and something like 50 tons of cargo, into space. Alternatively, if you thrust sideways, you will briefly be a fireball screaming across the sky at mach 14 before you melt from atmospheric friction.
Ohoho, I did not see the page icon. Thank you very much.
