Not quite every time, but often enough that I feel like an idiot whenever I do it.
Nah. And Jeff's right, that was pretty ghetto in the first place. When they bring it back I'd like it to be more near the top.
Yup, and I cry evertim.

They're bringing it back to the home page?
Dave Snider says
What we're not working on... right now.
Adding forums to the front door. Can't have custom queries per user while we have stability issues.
Achievements and quests. As discussed several times over many months, we had to remove these. They may return in the next few months.
Yes but I will hopefully get used to it
3. No, I never did
I always just went to Forums at the top of the page
Good! I was starting to feel like the only one who didn't really know what people were complaining about so much there for a bit.
"Wait, there was a forum feed at the bottom? Oh yeah! There was! Who the fuck used that?" And apparently a good number of the users did.
Nope since it is just twitter stuff and community stuff I have seen before.

What if i told you that clicking "forums" at the top was always faster than scrolling down to the bottom of the front page.
That would depend on the site remaining stable.
Which it isn't.

i did, but i also had the persona 4 forum favorited, so that was the forum i saw, and also that bottom was ghetto i feel cause of the community spotlight feature, as that rarely gets updated with how super curated it is.
real surprised that a lot of people used it though, it explains how some of my threads had a ton of views. definitely putting my news stories threads to a halt till it gets back on the front page (as dave said its coming back, but the site has to get stable first)

Even still, I always liked having both the GB content and the forums all neatly tucked into one tab.
Oh yeah it sure was better than the staff twitter feed. I guess i just don't get the people for whom this was their primary way to access the forums. I used it too every now and again when i did scroll all the way down to check community stuff but that's like once a week. If i'm just coming to the site for the forums i'd never go all the way down for that.
YES. I have become so much less active on the forums since it was removed from the front page. It's like they're hidden and not as important as everything else.
Not since the first day, no. It takes about four seconds of adaptation, and I used the fuck out of those main page discussions.
I never used that section. I'm not a fan of scrolling.
Yes, and I cry a bit every single time.
Yep, every time. I really hope they come back.
Nope, I never used the front door forums. I just always click the forums button and see what everyone is talkin' bout.
Yes, I don't even know how I got here without them.

I personally always used the forum feed at the bottom much for the same reason you'd put your music playlist on shuffle. Sometimes I'm not looking for anything specific to talk about, just want to post in an active thread on forums, whether it's a topic/game I am interested in or not.

...yeah, that would be why I clicked on the Forums button. I definitely understand why someone would miss the feed, but I just found it way quicker and more useful to middle click on the forums button and have it ready after I browsed the news, articles, and videos on the front page.
I never did, I just clicked on the "forums" tab at the top. To be honest, I forgot there was a forum feed on the front page until people started complaining about it being gone, I had no idea so many people used it.

Oh fuck, for 2 years I've always thought the only centralized forum thingie was the drop down menu at the top. Never thought to click on the forums tab itself. Well that solves everything!
I always just used the forums link at the top of the page.
The front page is empty like my heart =(
I spend almost no time on the homepage oddly enough. I just check the top of the page for new videos then jump straight to the forums.
Yes unfortunately out of force of habit, still baffles me why it was taken away.
On the old website, yes.
On the new website, the front page of the forums is pretty much what the bottom of the homepage on the old site was, but with more forum links. I've adapted since beta and kind of prefer it more.
The first few times I did scroll to the bottom out of habit. While not efficient, it was an easy snapshot of what was being discussed in the forums. Now I just refresh that forum tab.

I must admit that I've caught myself doing this a few times already. Thankfully the problem is easily fixed.
