I'm okay with it but as a tradeoff, make a direct link to talkabout in the top menubar.

There is.  It's called the Latest Posts link.

About forums and the people who're just wishing OT posts would die

The solution I thing is simple. There could be an option in our profile to settle this down.

The freedom of choice is a great thing.

So as in "My big fat greek wedding" says "So there you go.." ahahah (it was very funny that movie :-D :-D, We are not like that! maybe 60 years ago and maybe in some villages I dunno :-))

The only problem that maybe there could be is I think that there would be some people that would want that noone or everybody else should see the OT messages. (because it gives a bad image of the site or because that way Amiga.org remains alive and doesnt fall in silence.)

I for one I`m pro in displaying the OT forums.

I feel that amiga.org is the of the 'Mall' for all Amigians to hangout.
It is our community hall for us to touch base & chat.

In saying that there are many other forums offering topics of choice.

But under the current extreamlly low Amiga related news to discuss.
It would be a shame to do anthing that would disperse the community further.

Right now we need to remain in contact with each other & it gets hard to stay on Amiga related topics.

With the AmigaOne & OS4 coming to fruition we may well have new & exciting hardware & software to discuss.

Untill then please don't risk fragmenting the endangerd spiecies of A.org users.

That message says it all I thing.

Probably a good idea, although the ideal solution would be to have it configurable so each user has his own preference.  I'm sure that sort of thing will be introduced in future incarnations of Amiga.org, right Wayne?  ;-)

edit: Just for the record, I find some of the OT threads the most interesting threads.  Possibly because there's just little going on in the Amiga realm (aside from pointless arguments) so might as well argue about things that do matter, like world politics!  ;-)

Whaddayaknow? I've only just noticed this. I obviously don't pay enough attention.

Oh, I'm fine with it, as long as we still get to talk OT.

Ta,
