in the course of my investigations today i have seen three autoscrolling pages, sort of, in addition to this one. no. the one expanded, and did it smoothly, but why should it expand? the others, you felt like there was a limit.
the scroll bar is terrible for moving around a long scroll. i mean, it does work, and it's what we've got, and it's even great, but, no.
i don't care if i've got a million posts, or even a trillion, the scroll bar should show them all ... and, in fact, it sometimes does. true, the browser won't display a trillion posts ... and it should! that's the way to display them: as a scroll bar. then you show the post at a given location on that, and the posts above it, and the posts below it ...
sure, the position indicator on a one billion post scroll bar won't move even a little as you scroll through the scroll. that doesn't matter. there are all sorts of things you can do with a scroll bar to help people navigate.
