Question: Why do you need to jump to page 20? In a long topic, what value does it give you? We have found that the vast majority of users either link to a single post or scroll downwards. For mega topics, we have a summarize option that shows the "best of."

"We have found that the vast majority of users either link to a single post or scroll downwards." Well they don't have any choice do they :D I think that the summary tool of discourse is fantastic. So are the membership management tools/spam tools. A generation above phpBB. Just to balance out the criticism. But the infinite scrolling is a deal-breaker (for me).
