Forums relegated to the ghetto

Same here, actually. I could count the number of times I went to the main forums page on both hands.

Replaced my giantbomb.com bookmark with giantbomb.com/forums.

just a fyi for you all, dave replied on my rant thread and said they will tackle that issue later, they are making the site stable first which yea that is the priority

Ok thats pretty cool theres an update on it from Dave. I only ever used the front page forum unless i needed to look at a specific game forum ,then I searched that game. I also dont like to click on the forum button as I have to find the point where anchored articles end and the latest updates begin, it just adds that little bit of extra time. While I dont know about the community spotlight taking up that much space I do agree with the twitter feeds showing there as they do indeed update their feed related to the site

Yeah sign me up with everyone who wants the forums back on the front page. I felt one major theme of the site was being about the community and the fan base. One thing that showcased that was the forum most recent on the home page. I liked the feeling of getting a snapshot of what the community was talking about.

Even if i did not post i would feel connected to everyone and it not something you get on others site whose forums are locked away.

People actually used the forums from the front page? What are you, animals?

Like most people, I used the front page forum links and I don't care about twitter feeds. Changing that part of the front page was a mistake.
