forum scroll gone on the toms homepage

[andyinlondon]

What happened to the forum scroll on the toms homepage?

there is just a static list now?

you can only see a few forum entries instead of the nice long list that was there b4

Well it -sucks-.
The old way gave a much larger list of the most current threads.

I think most people are like myself and view the forums via that link.
Perhaps this was done to make more room on the main page...but less veiws = less advert hits so the plan falls apart.

I am sure many people will be spending time reading other news/tech sites now that you have made it less attractive/useful for the readers.

Seeing as you guys are ignoring my post, I'll repeat it here.

There used to be a single button you could press that would show you the threads you've posted in. With the redesign, that button is gone. You now have to go through each forum thread by thread to see if you posted in it. Massive waste of time.

Bring back my participation button! Now!

(lol, and I love the stories section. Four stories on the main page, with a button to select the next page. Its like the new site was designed to make you click as much as possible.)

I've never heard of the participation button , but I'm relatively new here. About when was it around?

For that "News" thing, you can click on the "Latest News" or "News" button, and get several days worth of news in one go.
