Adding To The Above 
Why not make all strings beginning with a # into links leading to said post? Like how linking to issues on Github works. 
 
Great ideas! Only numbers, not strings of course. Maybe some special syntax to denote start AND end would be needed though. Simply "#12-34"?

Func could use some SEO I think. How about using a noindex meta tag on all thread pages that are not using a start index divisible by 25 (or what the pagination post count is for visitors)? And a ref nofollow on those internal links within post bodies. 
How Do You Put Tags On Links? 
the one here: http://www.celephais.net/board/faq.php

seems a bit confusing to me. 
Disregard The Above. 
Already figured it out. 
'\' Is Stripped When Using Preview 
When you preview a post with '\' characters, they are stripped, but you can submit them just fine. 
 
hey cool, the [New #] links disappear when you hit back! 
 
They shouldn't unless the page gets refreshed. Normally when you hit back a cached version gets displayed. 
 
They disappear for me too. Not sure what the reason is but I like it.

A Request 
I would love to get the

"News | Forum | People | FAQ | Links | Account | Log out"

at the bottom of the page as well. It kinda sucks to have to scroll all the way back up a long thread to navigate back to the forums.

Apologies if someone has asked for this before and it's been shot down.

ctrl+home since forever 
 
alt + left arrow is "back" in most browsers (or apple + left arrow on macintosh) 
 
...which doesn't mean i won't do it, just, this is just a request for a hyperlink to go back, right? 
 
backspace also goes back! 
 
Although after posting, you're placed at the bottom of a forum thread after a page you probably don't want to back up over (the one with the post you just made typed out in the box). 
 
wait, not all people use mouse side buttons for back/forward? 
 
Seriously, what else are those side buttons for? 
 
For playing Diablo 3, as Jay Wilson said in 2008! 
 
Oh, yeah, those too. but backspace when it's touchpad time. 
 
basically what we're all saying is you have options 
Having The Buttons At The Bottom 
Would help when on other devices, not PC.

I specifically have those keys set to do nothing in web browsers because I use them as push to talk keys in VOIP programs, and it's annoying as fuck to keep changing webpage while I'm talking to someone.

But that's a bit off topic.

Just because a shortcut exists doesn't mean you should not put links where they will be most useful. When I get to the bottom of the page is when I am likely to want links to other parts of the site. I don't think it would make the site's design look awful either.
