Forum paging is painfully antiquated

Howdy Folks,  one of the things anyone who uses the forums is well aware of is  the pain point that topics with a large number of pages brings.  The "Show More" works if you only have a handful of pages to go through. but on topics with a larger number of posts it is completely inadequate and at a certain point many peoples posts might as well not even exists as most people will probably give up clicking on the "Show More" ad nauseam such as when I get a notification of a new post in the following topic 

Orange Dot Notifications Will Not Clear | EA Forums - 13196010

last night I gave up after click "Show More" 48 times and I was still in posts 3 months old.

The paging this forums uses just does not scale well at all and could use a serious upgrade  such as in the following image

    It would certainly be possible to display new replies at the top of a thread. It also bothers me that pressing the back button takes me to the beginning of a forum.

    There is at least the basic sort available that I had not noticed since it is off screen when you are at the bottom of a full page.  This solves the being able to see the new post issues at least. I would like to be able to set how many replaies I see per page as well. The ability to search just within a discussion would be nice too.
