Backlinks are really only neccessary when you have massive threads where people regularly reply to posts that are 10-20 posts back. That makes sense for a site like 4chan where threads frequently get hundreds of posts in a matter of hours, but /prog/ is a lot slower so it's not really needed.
>>4 Even if this site had hundreds of posts an hour, backlinks still are awful. Just visit the other textboards with them and you'll see what I mean. Also, hovering over the quotes shows the text of the post it references, so this is both useless and OP should kill himself.

You mean forward links? Cause all textboards have back links.

>>6 Quote back links are basically the ones that show up on a quoted post telling you that it has x replies which you can hover on to easily see what the replies say.

>>7 If it were a back link, that implies the reply comes before the post.

M00t have already abandoned this site long ago and this 4chan or tinychan is in charge by some code geek, so what does Thread Starter hope to achieve with NATO (No Action Talk Only) here ???
