How-to link to a specific message

How to link to a specific message:

At the top right corner of each message, there is a message number. It looks something like:

(post #5)

Instructions:

1. Go to the message to which you want to link, place your cursor over the number of the message and RIGHT-click on your mouse, then choose "COPY".

2. In the message that you are composing, then PASTE that link, the same way you would place any other typical link.

This way you will be able to link to any other message on this board.

Yup... this is true... however you have to keep something in mind. Let's say you're linking to post # 10. And the next day, the author of post # 3 deletes his own post. Then, your original link to post #10 won't work anymore. :p

If it's an important message that you want people to know about, maybe you can copy and paste it into your new message... and just include the name of the poster and the thread and the page on which it appeared.

Hope this helps.
