    Given that you've coded the reader to jump to the last page of a thread when a user clicks on it, it might be worthwhile to explore if you can go to the last unread post instead.

    In phpbb3 it's "http://forumurl/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=111&view=unread#unread" where f=1 is the forum number, t is the thread number, and the following tags are what I'm talking about.

    In vBulletin it's "http://forumurl/showthread.php?goto=newpost&t=111" without the forum number.

    Usually demarqued on thread by an icon beside the thread title, like this on your forum:

    [IMG]

    default vBulletin is like this:

    [IMG]

    default phpBB3 is like this:

    [IMG]

    Thoughts?
