Stereo Wrote:THE RULES
Appreciate the attempt but this one is probably not going to be included because it's actually too specific.
We need stuff that can handle the fact the rules can and will change, and won't have to be edited every time the rules do or risk confusing people. Basically an entry for this area needs to explain where to find the rules, how to read the rules, and how those rules impact the user, which you covered part of, but using examples that may not always be there, or may not have the same values. The seasonal theme probably isn't a good idea either, since it'd be a tad confusing to users reading it 8 or so months out the year.

Not doable. vBulletin defines the base href of each page as the root of the forum, so any implicit anchors would try to go to Southperry.net/#anchor not to an anchor on the actual thread being viewed, and the bbcode handlers are called from a point where they don't have access to identify the page calling them, only the two parameters they're passed by the end user. Without the ability to determine their own calling context, and with no way to pass it to them due to their limited parameters, you'll always have to specify where exactly your anchor is.
It's not having what you want - It's wanting what you've got.
