We're still under pretty heavy construction yet and most likely will be until 2012, but this new version of the site marks a pretty huge organizational shift in how our site will work. Let us know your thoughts and please excuse all the dust while we continue to upgrade everything. There WILL be stuff missing and broken, but hopefully we'll be able to get past all that relatively quickly. Thanks for your understanding. - Michael Tanczos

The forum pages are getting increasingly slow. IE8 (on XP) gets stuck after a click on the new page for up to 5 seconds. There's no indication something is still loading though.

Plus the certificate problem sometimes.

I saw this post How to be a Successful Kickstarter and wanted to suggest it as an article (or even news post). Then I realized that my Promote to Article is gone!

Gentlemen. Where in the @#$@#$ is my Promote to Article?! Hmmmm

Note: special characters not meant to be actual vulgarity.

I can't find a vulgar word that fits that number of symbols.

In time the project grows, the ignorance of its devs it shows, with many a convoluted function, it plunges into deep compunction, the price of failure is high, Washu's mirth is nigh.

Gone. For now, while we rework its use. This would be something you would submit as a link anyway.

I'm not a fan of the whole bookmark app thing.... honestly. But meh, whatever.

More important question

Why aren't news threads shown with the other threads? Can there not be a News Sub-Forum and that shows the threads for the news? Or a filter under Content Type called News? I find it odd those threads aren't there.

News "threads"? Not sure what you're referring to here. There is no news in the forums

Is this not considered a thread for a news article?

Gotcha. I think you're looking for this. Which is, admittedly, not at all very accessible at the moment. The only way I can get to it is to go to the bottom of the Our News tab to click on the archives link.
