Now you can add <READMORE> tags in long notes if you want. This will create a link which points to the full node;

    Please tell me it isn't so.

    There's gotta be an override or something right, you're not actually gonna force everybody to click on the link?

    I like the idea and everything, but I like to see all the posts of a thread on one page, I do not wish to click on readmore tags for notes, not even if they're long ones.

    Please provide me(us) with a setting in user settings to turn readmore tags on-off for notes, with off being the default(since as of now it is).

    If this gets too popular, I'll be clicking like crazy just to see everything, and that's too much work, since I tend to visit all new nodes, or at least I have since last year.

    update:
    I apologize punkkid, that's what I meant. Just lost my train of thought a little, ...'see all the posts of a thread on one page ... with off being the default'. So in actuality, I want what you said.

    perl -e "$q=$_;map({chr unpack qq;H*;,$_}split(q;;,q*H*));print;$q/$q;"

      If off is the default, we might as well scrap the tag all together. Then most people (those with the default) won't use the tag, so it won't do any good for those that do.
