Splitting Threads

Recommended Posts

When a moderator/administrator splits a post or series of posts into a separate thread, could they include, as standard practice, a link back to the original thread? (Unless there already exists some method of tracing the thread of origin which as yet eludes me.) While I understand the desirability of separating a slightly OT fork in the discussion, often the posts being split are in response to something still in the original thread and thus lose their context when removed. For that matter, a "marker" of sorts might be placed in the original thread where the post(s) in question were removed.

My concern here is to be able to reconstruct, mentally at least, the original flow of conversation and establish the proper context for some of the statements being made.

Thanks.
