MetaPost comments and questions about the messageboards and other parts of EN World. If you have a problem, this is where to go. Moderator email addresses are posted here.
Missing stuff on the front page, mainly on the right hand side. I see the Support EnWorld thing as well as the Recent Reviews, but I can't see the most recent replies or the news.
Is it just me? Was like this yesterday as well. Thought giving it a little time might help, but apparently not.

Short of that, you're not really getting the MMO experience.
I'm trying to speed the site up by removing high load items from the front page - especially those which are really just a duplicate of info elsewhere. It seems to be working (at least to me).
Ah, well. I miss the "most recent forum threads" box, but if it's a performance hit I can understand. If you decide to leave it like this I'll just have to change my bookmarks is all.

But the most recent threads allowed me to surf at work and have an idea of what was going on in multiple forums, is there a way to have a secondary page that we could also load that has that option enabled?

I think we may have just witnessed the birth of the 4th edition development process...

You could just have your bookmark point directly at the forums page:

Hrm, this is mainly the only thing I cared about, but if it's not there, I guess I'll have to deal with it.
Yes, the forums page might work, but I also like to see the headlines down the center of the page as well, meaning that my 1 page turns into 2.
But I guess no one can please everyone.

Would 'Recent Forum Topics' load quicker if it had its own page? So, it wouldn't have to compete with everything else on the page?

I... didn't know that existed! Cool! Is it linked from anywhere (other than on here?) or do I have to bookmark it to use it?

Oh, 'New Posts since my last visit'--the name threw me off. Thanks!

I guess that only works if you subscribe? As I cannot afford to subscribe I guess that leaves me out?
Unfortunately, yes, it does use Search.
I always liked using it, but I don't find it essential. I mainly use my Subscriptions to jump around between forums, with looking what goes on in the forum. Fulfills a similar role, but I can see that the old New Posts might be more essential to others.

The posts on there aren't arranged in chronological order (I don't know what order they're in), so not all the most recent posts are at the top.
Edit: Oh, that's because refreshing the page doesn't refresh the Search, just the times.
