1)  Please note the up to date contact number for Samaritans in Ireland is now the same as the rest of the UK  -  " 116 123 "

2)  You might also like to show contact details for "Breathing Space" helpline as shown here:

Thanks!

Edited/added the info. Thanks

It would also be great if when you click on a thread, it brought you to the first unread post, rather than back to post 1 every time.

You need to click the green arrow

Fab, thank you

Probably not technically easy but a limit on the amount of text people can quote in a reply, and maybe a limit on the nesting of quotes. (Thinking of Romeo Beckham!)

In a discussion today one of the posters suggested that this is a "British English site".  Maybe, 3/4 of the mods are in the UK.  But what about the headcount?  I think that would be an interesting fact about the site, the worldwide reach.  Are you able to put together a distribution by georgraphy based on ISP address without it being a big headache?  (I sometimes click on a video on here and get the message: "Not available in your country".)

Divvy up the world into broad categories (your choice).  Maybe:
UK
Ireland
Other EU
Europe non-EU (PUllio states that he's in Iceland.  cool!)
North America
South America
Africa
Asia
Australia/NZ
Other (Caribbean, South Pacific, Tristan da Cunha)

Despite a rather small sample of 1300 so far, this might still be a good time to do it (with ISP address) because nobody is on holiday.  Nobody is going anywhere!

Alternatively do a poll. (Would everybody see it?)

It would be interesting.

Cool! Thank you.

Would be useful if when you check your own profile to see which of your own threads are liked (yes, I am that shallow!) you could see from the results page at a glance how many likes each thread has received, instead of having to go to each thread individually to check.

And yes, I know your own profile does indicate your most liked thread.

I sometimes like to see who liked one of my posts (for Discussion Forums only).
It's nice to know who my fans are.  (I already know who my enemies are. )
Sometimes I can find it out by going round about, but that's work.

At the bottom left below your post, there should be a small switch in front of the "1 user liked Parsifal's post". If you click the small switch the user that liked your post will be displayed. At least that's how it works for me, but maybe it's a mod-only feature???

Yup, that works.
Thanks.  It never occurred to me that that box is a clickable switch.

Are the megathreads coming back or have you given up on them?
