Okay this might be the obvious opinion the regular user would bring up..

Why is there mod description on ALL pages of the thread? It should be only on the first page... you have to scroll down to see the comments. It's really annoying :(

Thanks.

I agree, it is a tad annoying. But you can just click the collapsable thread button and be on your way with minimal hassle.

What would be really clever is if, when collapsed, it still expanded on the first page.

Are you asking what conditional to use so that the the description is not collapsed on the first page but is on the other pages?

I haven't even looked, nor has it been discussed with the staff, it was just a thought - but feel free to post any suggestions.

Just think about the coder who had to write the whole list, all the time it takes :D

Joe tells me it's already done :)

I've just tried it and it works, if you collapse it on page 2+ it's still expanded on page 1.

GARS does something like this. The full article is on the first page, while subsequent pages are abbreviated.

Example, here's page 1 of an interview I did, showing everything:

http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/artist-reviews-interviews/18405-sevenstring-org-interview-marten-hagstrom-meshuggah.html

And page 2, with the "abbreviated" header:

http://www.sevenstring.org/forum/artist-reviews-interviews/18405-sevenstring-org-interview-marten-hagstrom-meshuggah-2.html

How about we assign a Janitor to go threw the mods with 500 pages and merge together similar questions with the Answer just below and make the first post exclusive to the thread starter and add The Thanks Hack so we dont have 300 pages of thank yous , Then we wouldnt need the Mod Describer limited to just the first page .

Go to the root of the issue ... ITs not the fact that The Mod Describer is on everypage its the fact that theres so many pages

I love "thank yous" and "your mod rocks" messages.
