I know Levi is doing what he can, but right now it is just an extra click.

I think you guys know where I'm going with this.

The front (?back) page serves some nice purposes, so I don't see Claude 'euthanizing' it any time soon. It's a distilled list of the key moments in Destiny news. Also, when we post it gets announced on the Twitter feed, so that's a useful vector to the site for many folks.

That said, we do need to be better about posting news. I try to jump in when I can, but I often myself on accidental hiatus.

Twitter and the Frontpage are the only thing I can see at work, so it's nice in that regard.

It's weird; I can browse all over HBO (on my lunch break, of course), but trying to click on the DBO forums (or any link that goes to a forum thread) gives me a massive error screen. I don't remember what it says (I'm at home now), but I can screenshot it on Monday if any of the admins are interested.

I notice large gaps of news here and on HBO, which is sad because stuff like this deserves to be posted, and other stuff, like this doesn't make it into the "Creations" section, if nowhere else, but some stuff is simply not communicated, so it gets missed. It's a bit worse on HBO (No update since a couple of posts on Thursday), but that might just be because we're more used to daily news there and some big stuff gets missed (especially with the Beta Update stuff). I feel like the non-forum elements should be a bit more relevant.

Heck, I could help out, if the situation gets desperate enough...

But if enough people are actively bothered by the frontpage... :/

I'm not. Chances are the forum has already gotten to it first. As I told Claude a while ago, I don't even read anything on the front page here and always click right to the forums.

Before you get too worried, here's just one person's perspective: I have never understood what any of this thread is about the whole time.

There's folks who hit the front page who don't ever venture into the forums, so that doesn't work for everyone, but if you really don't like the front page, why not just bookmark the forum instead?

I kind of wish that the front page news items were simply special forum posts so we could click through on a news item to discuss it. I doubt that would be easy to do though.

Hope everything is okay. :-/
