When did this topic change from Mundane & pointless to Miscellaneous and Personal?

I’ve been a Doper since '99. I just noticed that this thread has changed name. Please tell me it doesn’t go all the back to the board migration!

Oh, good! I thought I’d missed it, possibly for years. I’ll sort of miss Mundane and Pointless, because we all knew it was no such thing. But I don’t do change well, and this is minor in the scope of things.

I like the change! There were times when I went to post something here and I’d think to myself, “it’s really not a mundane or pointless thing”.

And how brilliant to keep the MPSIMS acronym.

I wonder how many months it would’ve been before I noticed, if it weren’t for this thread?

(How many people check ATMB regularly? I don’t, unless there’s a hot issue or someone’s about to get banned… how about pinning an announcement to this forum for a while?)

It was pinned globally until noon today. Not sure how you missed it.

That’s the problem with pinned threads. I assume they are rules or something that’s been there forever, and I automatically skip over them.

You can manually unpin threads in your own view, so they fall down and get buried like normal threads. Then it will be easier to notice when a new pinned thread shows up.

I always go directly to the “new” or “unread" list. I don’t think pinned threads appear there.
