Would it be possible to move SD/Chi down (or up) one position? Comments on Cecil’s Columns and Comments on Staff Reports should be together. Every time I see SD/Chi in between it’s a momentary tiny annoyance.

No biggie if the positioning was intentional, I’m certainly not losing sleep over it. But for me, it makes more sense to move it up or down one.

Thanks for considering the idea!

Yeah, I guess we can do that.

I just want to say thanks Ed, that was something that bothered me too, just not enough to say something. Thanks! The forum list looks much better now.

Is there a reason it was moved out of the “Side Conversations” area where it (IMHO) belonged anyway?

Because not enough people were using it. Remember its purpose was to have a forum with highly localized participants so that he could present that demographic data to advertisers, which would give the Dope higher rates with fewer ads.

I’m sure a lot of people would appreciate that.
