Anyone know what the heck happened to the scrolling forums banner? I for one loved that thing and hope they didn't do away with it. _________________________________________________________

Yeah, c'mon hobbs, get your act together
I do like the links at the top though and the selection of links changes as to what one you hover over. I do believe that is new?????? _________________________________________________________ Opinions are like arse holes, everybody has one and your's stinks.

exactly.. It slowed down the site loading times immensely guys and also wasnt helping with our google stuff.
I will soon add a option so that all users can turn on the scrolling active topics but for now please use the ACTIVE TOPICS page or the homepage where it shows all the active topics on the right hand side.
Sorry for those who liked that feature but i will be doing my best to get it back soon.. Im trying to improve the site.
Personally I don't noticed any significant change in loading time without the scrolling banner. I really like the banner because I could quickly see what was on the forum's que to see if there was anyone I could help without having to click through a bunch of pages to get to the forums section. To me it is 1000 times slower having to click the links then it ever was for the front page to load. Just my opinion though. _________________________________________________________
I myself never used it anyways, I just went to any forum that had a new post. _________________________________________________________

Just put your mouse over the forums part and click on active topics and that will give you a list of all that people are posting on and new ones, i was with this new setup for a while before everyone else got it just testing on it. I did think the same but once you get the hang of it, i like this a lot better just takes a little while to get use to guys.
Thanks Hobbs, Great work on the site and all these new features are kicking butt. _________________________________________________________ The one the only Scarface!!

The site is getting better and better everyday. Now I realize the reason for getting rid of the scroll. _________________________________________________________ aka IrishGunner
I do like the new way that the top bar is set up now though, makes it a lot easier to find things. _________________________________________________________
