At any rate, I was thinking more along the lines of having the thread title link to the first post, and the "most recent" text (or the time of the most recent post) link to the last post, which is more or less the way it works on some other message boards. Though perhaps that might be impossible due to the limitations of this specific board platform.
@mattjoes, ahh, that's not a bad idea. I am unsure of the possibility of it, as I know little about what the forum runs on.
Cheers in advance.
I had the EXACT same problem, also with ClarkDevlin's name. Only happened to me on one thread a few weeks back, hasn't happened since for some reason (fingers crossed...).
I've had problems typing a certain members name with the search function after typing the starting "@". Yesterday I was trying to comment something directly to you yesterday, @Creasy47, and instead @DarthDimi kept coming up instead and erasing what I was trying to type. That's never happened to me before, but it was weird.
Just like I had trouble selecting certain members to quote after typing @ and beginning their username, every time I try to type in "Thunderfinger" to directly quote or mention him, a small window (like the one that you see when you flag a post, but smaller and in simple text like you use in chat instead of the bold letters and "Flag" button) pops up that says:
Please DO NOT engage this member in conversation on the forum pages. It only encourages him and his activity must be restrained and limited on the site to the highest possible degree.
Consider this, or consider a ban.

Anyone else get this warning?
I did a screencap:
What really caught me off guard was when I got this message from a mod later on (about an hour after the alert window came up), with the implication being that I was being contacted for trying to talk to Thundy or even just type his name on the forum, though he was only mentioned as "you-know-who":
What's going on here? Is there a plan to flush him out of the forum? Certainly a private chat with him or a swift ban would suffice (harsh, but...), instead of barking up the trees of random members who simply type his name??
Well, you shouldn't have then. I didn't get as strict a warning I guess, but I hope you've not endangered your place here by speaking up. You're one of the good ones, and your ban would not go over well.
I don't want to speak out of turn here, but mods must also understand the great responsibility that comes with their power.
And er... what are the ban warnings above for?
Sometimes I'll be trying to type out a message and the comment box will keep flashing the search function for members and won't disappear unless I save the draft or backspace, which is strange. It seems to happen most often in messages where I'm mentioning a lot of members, as if the search function doesn't know what to do when you link/mention/quote that many members.
Apparently there's a mod conspiracy to oust Thunderfinger from the forum, and @jake24 and myself are headed to the gallows for speaking up about it.
At this stage, who knows. @jake24 has had his post redacted, so something is fishy and behind the curtains things seem to have been unsettled.
I didn't send that message to @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7
Either a severe glitch or something more sinister.
And it's not what Ralph Fiennes says.

Be done about this ? :-)
I suspect that they are either ex-Quantum or SPECTRE agents.
SMERSHHHH!
