 @arxpoetica
 The issue you described appears to be fixed now. At least for me it is.
 Testbp.org runs on the latest trunk revision, so it's always in flux.

 @erich73
 If this were maybe the activity stream, I could see how a "load more"
 button might be better, but from a usability standpoint, it makes much
 more sense to have forum topics and replies to be paged. Even Facebook,
 which BuddyPress is very much modeled after, pages their forums topics and
 replies.

 At the same time, from a usability standpoint, having to scroll, or move
 your mouse (if you're on a large screen), back to the top isn't the best
 either. I could also see some room for improvement in the wording, or lack
 there of in this case. What if there were some sort of Previous/Next links
 along with the page numbers, and then this functionality was displayed at
 the bottom too?
