Fix form-post used for page to page navigation

When viewing threads in a forum, it's simple and intuitive to click on a topic, then click Back to get back to the forum listing.

If you're looking at a forum with a lot of posts, you may need to move to page two (or beyond) in the forum listing. Sadly, moving to page 2 is done via the standard ASP.NET form POST, which kills the productivity of the Back button.

Suggestion: change the links to page 2 and beyond to be GETs with an additional parameter in the query string instead of using a POST and having an unnecessarily stateful page.

The same idea - this is typical problem of all forums - when you are somewhere on 'past' pages - you always are bring to the first page.
That is very disturbing :(
