Navigating to Red Comments After Entering Threads Is Harder Than It Used To Be

Currently, the Riot icon is present outside a thread before entering it, but after entering a thread, that Riot icon that allows for a quick jump to a Riot post is no longer present on the side of the thread and is only avaliable if you happen to come across a Riot post now, sometimes requiring reading through multiple pages of comments to actually find. It's been that way for awhile...and it's pretty inconvenient.

I'd like to be able to click on a thread, read the OP's comment in full, and then jump to the first Rioter Response (assuming they responded).

This used to be easy, convenient, and intuitive.

Currently, doing this is still easy (if you know what to do), but not very convenient or intuitive.

After entering a thread, there should be a link to the first Rioter response available, to allow for quick navigation between Rioter posts within that thread.

For some reason, there doesn't seem to be any quick link to Rioter's responses within threads anymore. Granted, it's not that hard to click on the Rioter icon outside of the thread to jump to the first red comment, but it just makes sense to read what the OP's post is in full before jumping to that.

This isn't really an important issue, but rather a weird example of a small backward step in the convenience and usability of the forums.

You are able to click on the Riot icon before entering a thread in order get to a Riot comment, but doing so skips over the OP's comment.

I'm not trying to say anything is broken here, because it isn't. It just takes a bit more work than it used too, since it's not quite as streamlined in this one instance as it used to be.

Within a thread, there should be an option to jump to the next Rioter post like there used to be. Even if it's just a link at the top of the comments on every page. That would be really convenient.

Could any of the people downvoting this thread share their opinion? Heck, If I'm just overlooking something due to my own ineptitude, let me know.

Downvoting a question doesn't answer a question...it just makes things more confusing.

If I'm a dumbass that's totally overlooked some function of these boards, just let me know!
