New Posts Button at the Bottom?

Just a minor request. I often scroll threads on FT by hitting 'New Posts' at the top of the screen. When I've read a thread that has multiple pages, trying to scroll up to see the banner is made hard by the "auto-scroll" showing me older posts in the same thread. So, then I'm forced to Forum Jump and then click New Posts. If there was something at the bottom of threads, it would save some time for me (and likely others as well).

Also, while I'm at it, it would be nice to have a New Posts option on the mobile page as well too.

Agree there's no in thread "new posts" button in the mobile view, but you can click on the post counter as you click into the thread. If it's showing a little red mark that means it will take you to the new posts for that thread.

In the desktop version, you can disable auto-scroll by going to MyFlyerTalk | Edit Options, scrolling down to "Thread Display Options" and selecting "Disable Infinite Scroll" in the "Infinite Scroll" box.

I like the auto-scroll, I just also like to be able to get out of the current thread I'm in and back to a list of new posts. I know this is definitely a first-world problem, but figured I'd at least bring it up.
