Go to Thread Start
-
This link work as suggested was to go to the parent of the message (the one this message is replying to) Apparently, it has two bad things : 1) if we have messages look like this
- (1) dsadasdasdas - (2) sadasdasdasd - (3) sadasdasdasdWhere 2 is replying to 1 and 3 is replying to 2, then the [Go to Thread Start] link in 2 and 3 goes to (1), in fact it may be better if the link on 2 goes to 1, and the one on 3 go to 2, as this will be helpful in large consecutive responds the same message. ---- 2) This link also reloads the whole page, it may be better if you make it like selecting the message itself, without reloading the page, (using JS or whatever you use), as when I click on any message header it opens in it's place, that Go to Thread Start link would be good if you can make it doing the same behavior like this. :)

The only time that "Go to Thread Start" is useful is when the parent is off the page. If the parent is off the page then we need to do another request to get that page. If we do everything via AJAX then a roundtrip call is still needed.

What LongHC is suggesting in his first point is that "Go to thread start" should actually be "Go to parent". I totally agree with this.
