Maybe I'm misunderstanding, too! FWIW, here's an example of what I had in mind:

> even if I am able to find out which thread is being redirected and from what board, we would still have to go back to the old board to follow the development of the thread. This may also happen, perhaps, with partial threads that respond to posts which were previously archived. It seems to be difficult, again, to follow the development of the thread.
The "Thread" section under each post should give you an idea of what goes on before and after that post. Even if a thread goes from one archive to another. But not if a thread is redirected from one board to another, sorry.
Also, the first post of each thread still lists the whole thread (no matter how long it is).
> Also even sometimes when I do not see a redirection note, people seem to be responding to a previous post that I can't find.
I'm not sure what's going on there, can you give me an example?
