Identifying the Original Poster

in Help & Feedback
Would it be possible to put something in the header of Original Poster’s subsequent posts that identifies them as the OP?  Maybe OP in red or something.
I often have to go back to the beginning of page 1 in a thread to see who the OP was, and that’s awkward in multi-page threads.
Thanks.

    On what device are you viewing this forum?

    On the Full Site version, in each forum section, the Discussions are listed including the name and thumbnail of the starter and whoever happens to have posted most recently.

    If you are using a tablet or smartphone, scroll to the bottom left hand corner of any page and click the Full Site link.



    FWIIW, my preference is not to be identified as the thread starter. :trollface: 
    Be seeing you.

    Good idea. Basically have badged roles for

    Author (the OP)
    Moderator (a mod)
    Admin (the owner)

    Quite common in other roles of forums.

    If you're in a browser you can middle-click page 1 to bring that up in another tab.

    As for adding more 99% irrelevant information to every post, I'm not for it; "modern" web page design seems to be all about reducing the amount of content per page in favour of stylistic fripperies.
