I don't know if I'm the only one this has happened to, but on more than one occasion, I've clicked on ToE accidentally when I intended to click on the m77t forum. Since ToE is NSFW, I would really rather that this not happen. Is there any way that we could just move ToE to the bottom of the page, or somewhere where accidental inadvertent clicks would be harder?

It's never happened to me (but then I visit either forum extremely rarely), and I don't know if it happens to anyone else, but come to think of it, I agree it would be prettier to have the Member's Lounge below Moot&Geek, and ToE at the bottom.
But that's just me, we'd need more input on that. :)

Of course that would not prevent people accidentally clicking the wrong line.


Moving it is no problem, I'd just have to figure out under what conditions it can be moved (majority of Rangers agreeing? board-wide vote?) - I'll check as soon as I have time.

For some reason I thought it was at the bottom of the list. I didn’t register with me until just now that it's not.

I have no problem with moving it, but like hobby I’m not sure of the procedure for such a thing. I believe it just needs a majority of the Rangers to agree. If so, well, I agree.

I don't believe there is any charter provision specifically regarding moving the position of a forum. The closest is the provision regarding moving a thread, which does indeed require a majority of Rangers.

Amazing. 8 consecutive Spams, some of which managed less than 5 characters.

No wonder the Primly one has 4373 posts.... ;)

4375.

And the question and answer shouldn't count as spam. Information was exchanged. Can Jude and I help it if we're concise? :x

I've accidentally clicked on it when wanting to click on M77t and g77k. No idea why.

I'd favor a repositioning.

I've clicked on it, too. At work, inevitably. :blackeye Of course, I never asked for permissions, so the only damage was a brief moment of confusion as to why the board required special permissions for m77t. Not a biggie, for me, but a move still seems a good idea.

Since we now have a majority of Rangers agreeing I'll go ahead and move it.

:rage: :rage: RAWR!

Members' Lounge was at the bottom earlier, then I went to TORC to post in Manwe, came back to check the Members' Lounge, went straight to the bottom thread, and there I am in the ToE (not that I am worried). Dern you all! Foiled!



Eh, I don't really care, but I thought it was funny. :cheers
