Set post-count for thread in URL

[Zeturic]

I generally browse Pokecommunity using 100 posts per page, as I much prefer few large pages to many small ones. However, often people will often link to or reference a particular page of a thread (without doing to link to a single post thing), and it can be slightly annoying to have to go in and change my setting back to the forum default (which I believe is 20) just to be able to see what they're linking to / referencing.

Is there a way to append the post count to the URL, and to use that, rather than what's set in User CP? That would be more convenient than having to go in and change my settings and then change them back.

If this isn't currently possible, you can consider this a feature request.

Thank you.

Edit: A big source of these kinds of links are search engines, which use the forum default (for obvious reasons). People do occasionally do it as well, but it's not particularly common.

It's not a particularly general solution, but I did come up with something that works for me since initially posting this. Now, whenever I come across such a link, I'll go back to the link and open it in incognito/private mode. Signing out and back in also works, but that's only slightly more convenient than changing your settings.

Also, sorry for accidentally bumping this. I meant to edit this post, but I actually quoted it and created a new post by mistake. Sorry.

The chain link next to the link to a single post thing will, while loading the page at a specific post, still load the whole page. This won't fix the problem of people linking to specific pages, but it may reduce it just by making people aware of what the chain link does. I'd imagine a lot of people aren't even aware that you can do that.
