I was just looking Mnjul's post in the last "trojan in MP!"-alert. He put two links to two threads. i imagined they where Patchou's well-known "how to get rid from ad-ware" and some other trojan alert. However I didn't know, and I didn't want to waste more time looking what the Thread were.
So here's my suggestion:
When a member posts urls of threads or posts, it could automatically ask the database for the thread-id and convert it into a link to that thread/post with the name of the thread.
E.g.:
I type this in my new post:
code:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=21598
Now it wuold show as this:
http://shoutbox.menthix.net/showthread.php?tid=21598
What I suggest is that it's automatically modified when sending the post (not everytime the post is shown...) to this:
code:
How to uninstall ad-ware/sponsor
And therefore appear as:
How to uninstall ad-ware/sponsor
Of course there can be further possiblities like:
Patchou's thread: How to uninstall ad-ware/sponsor
Or when linking to a post:
Chris Boulton's reply in Patchou's thread: Note about Trojan detection
And even better if the name of the poster/thread poster was a link to their Profile.
