Can not show 10 pages of a large discussion in a row?

[rojuwah]

hi, I know that if there are only 10-15 pages of a discussion on a certain topic exists, than I can see all, shown by a ";all" affix on browser address bar. However, I can not do so if there are >20 discussions. But I believe I should be able to do so. Is there any solution that I do not know? The reason why I (and I believe we) need such a topic browsing feasibility feature is as follows;

Take as an example such as `NXT coin ann topic` amongst altcoin announcements. It is >2000 pages. Well If I could see all those pages by 200 clicks (10 pages at once), I could maybe skim the discussion nonetheless spending a night or whatsoever. But with 2000 clicks needed (10x more) in its current state, pointing the mouse with `next page` button on top/bottom of each page and clicking on it 10 more times, becomes a more difficult/tiresome task than actually skimming the text. This is absolutely a redundant job just is not feasible.

+1 I want the ability to view all posts on a single page.

This is probably done because the page load times on some of those threads would be ridiculously long and might just crash your browser, hog up server resources etc.
With that said, apart from causing strain on the server I don't care about my resources, I have a beast of a computer and I'm sure it'd hold up well enough.

It shouldn't affect modern PCs & browsers, but theymos said there is a limit to prevent it from taking up too many resources.

You can view all posts on a single page for topics shorter than 26 pages.

uh oh, u got me wrong guys. I do not mean showing 2000 pages at once. I meant 10 pages of it at once so that I can browse those 2000 pages 10 with each click (so that I need 'only' 200 clicks instead of 2000).

That being said, I am not against the idea of `show all 2000` lol (but maybe without images/avatars for the sake or resources).

The whole history of the AM thread would be quite impressive as a single load that and Labcoin not sure if any threads on the forum go up to 2K yet though interesting idea in my opinion.

Take that back mumble one thread is scary 5k pages lol

Definitely without the images that would take a lot of resources

Maybe there should be a bare HTML version for ALL of the posts. That way it wont take up too much resources.
