Maybe at second level instead (Who's online, Members, Calendar) would not look so intrusive? -
But that bar doesn't appear on the What's New? view. It's only on the Home page - which people say they don't look at and which already has the link at the top of the sidebar. I felt very guilty about moving it up to the top of the list.Originally posted by Pulcinella View Post
Oh, it does appear if you're already viewing a topic. I could do that (I think).It isn't given us to know those rare moments when people are wide open and the lightest touch can wither or heal. A moment too late and we can never reach them any more in this world.Comment

One wonders what has happened to ahinton, whose last post was on November 14 last year. I hope he is all right.Comment

I was thinking the other day that Ardcarp has been quiet, not posted since October. I guess FF may know something as he was a mod of some sort ( on The Choir ? ) at some point.I will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

I've been wondering about this for a while. Ardcarp was the originator of the ill-fated politics thread that resulted in (ahem!) a bit of bother and the timing of his exit does suggest a possible connection.Originally posted by teamsaint View Post"The sound is the handwriting of the conductor" - Bernard HaitinkComment

I think that he did start that thread with a certain caution, and although of strong views, he never really got involved in heated discussion .Originally posted by Petrushka View PostI will not be pushed, filed, stamped, indexed, briefed, debriefed or numbered. My life is my own.

…Condolences to his nearest and dearest

Sounds and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears, and sometime voices..."
