I think the problem is this:
When you join the forum you tend to look in the forum sections that interest you the most, so you can sort out, ask or research the problems you are having.
To be a part of the forum, you then start to look in other areas of the forum, or try to keep up with the newest posts. I think most people will click the 'What's New' tab or the 'new posts' tab at the top of the forum page. At this point, and only here as I see it, are you bombarded with all the most popular posts... which are the ones relating to all the subjects/news items/ more passionate threads/posts of the day (which are in their own appropriate sections)
It can make it look like all we do is bitch about 'immigration' and bleat about the 'red tops' but these are subjects close to our hearts because of our outrage at the government who seem not to do anything but make out paths more difficult to follow.
No one here has changed, the forum is as friendly now as it has ever been and the wealth of experience that is freely given is clearly first class.
If these newest posts in the news sections were not visible in the 'new posts' & 'what's new' tabs, all would be well with the world as far as I can see. But I am not sure if this is a possible to achieve with the forum software and is for the boss to decide on.
