What do the forums have to do with my account and why should there be a direct link to them there? That belongs on the community page where it now is.

Usually, web designers make (or should make) things that are more frequently used easier to get to.

I don't use the Partner stuff very often and assume that most people probably don't use it very often either. I do use the Forums stuff fairly regularly, though.

They have an obvious link for Partner but have removed the obvious link for Forums. I don't care if having forums in there doesn't meet some strict definition of what "My Account" means - I want quick access to things I use often.

Some people just like to find crap to cry about :rolleyes:

Yeah. Apparently. :rolleyes:

I am bumping you to an 8.5 on the Official Trout Measuring Instrument of Sluttiness. You are an enigma - on the one hand a sweet, gentle, intelligent woman who we would like to wrap up in our arms and protect, and on the other, a temptress to whom we would like to do all sorts of unmentionable things.

Congratulations and shame on you! You are a bit of a slut.

I really don't think so - it has just grouped things together under more logical headings - the Forums belong to the community; information under Account is just for you.



I have to agree. Having all "account" related options on the left navigation bar makes total sense. Having "community" options in the drop down menu makes sense. All it requires is a simple change of habit.

I actually find the new layout much more usable now.
