Bitcoin Forum

I am suggesting that the admin makes a few changes by linking the Merit and Post history of each profile right from the threads just like the link to the profile's trust page, that's if it won't affect the forum's loading speed and bandwidth (Forgive me, am ignorant about technical aspects of websites)

It would make it easier to navigate to the merit and post histories of a profile directly from a discussion thread

Oldies but goldies, don’t change anything about the forum.

I want to support the suggestion of OP. For me too, it is helpful and it would be easier for us to check the post history of a user especially for the campaign managers, one-click then headed right away. No need to visit the user's profile by clicking the forum username if we only want to check the previous posts.

Definitely a good suggestion to save a few clicks. I think for trust it's enabled right now to have a direct link for checking the trustworthiness of a member while for Merit it isn't that urgend. But I don't see a reason why it shouldn't be enabled, we could also do the same thing for "posts" to load the latest post of an user directly:

Activity: 616
Merit (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=merit;u=1247226): 626
Posts (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=1247226;sa=showPosts): 1725

Can someone tell how many of suggestions from this subforum are actually implemented by admins?

+1, I support it  :) I think this is useful to easily navigate in merits and post-history of a lot of users here in the forum.

Although it is also reliable clicking the username of the user directs you to the profile and from there you could easily check post history, merits, etc. but this is helpful to also have this feature in the forum.

Hello this may not be updated but it shows some update on the suggestion and those that not/did implemented.

^{Thats cool OP, I think your suggestion is nice and will really have a quick view to merits of some user. Though clicking some profile more woulndt hurt much of our time}

Linking merit history would be a good changes. I often feel the necessity of that, however, I really don't see any reason why post history should be linked. That doesn't necessary in my opinion.

Don't worry, theymos isn't going to switch from smf sooner. I can't see any plan soon.

I do see this helpful and don't see any cons with this implementation. It will save around two to three clicking by not clicking on user's profile and then clicking the merit or post history. Also I think members that are merit sources or people who consistently gives merits would see this beneficial towards their time on reviewing members before they give them merits so I also support this kind of change.


I don't have a number but I remembered when the merit system (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2818350.0) was introduced a lot of the members' comments have been applied in the merit system. So if you are asking if the mods are listening or not, they are.

A users trust page isn't linked on every thread, it is only seen directly on a users post on a few boards,(and not on every board)mostly the commercial boards and the altcoins section where there are so many scams.

I've seen a suggestion before requesting that the trust page be shown when a user posts on every board(and imo it's more important than the post history or merits), but it was not implemented; theymos I think doesn't consider it a hassle to click on the username to see every information, and so do I.
