Private Message including referring link from the thread!

Have you ever received a PM saying e.g. "Hi, I'm interested in your offer." and you have no idea what is the guy talking about? Wouldn't it be great if, at top/bottom of every PM you receive there's link to the thread this guy visited before he sent you a PM. So, instead of having the above, you would have the link above/below it, you click the link, and there's the thread he is talking about. I think it'd be great.

  1. This can, however, be an invasion of privacy if a user goes to PM someone after viewing a thread they don't want to be included. I like the concept, just not the idea of it being included all the time. Maybe a link that says "PM w/ thread", or something along those lines.

  2. Yes, that's an excellent addition. Or, maybe just a checkbox before you send it that says "Include referring link?"

  3. Honestly, this seem pretty easy to do(if someone were to do it for a MOD/plugin) :P

  4. Tom, you're probably right. But I think that it'd be great if it was included in the edition itself

  5. I don't, for the simple fact that 1/2 of the people running 1.4.x would have the feature disabled; just my thoughts though
