Complain here by selecting a poll option. The links represent the No Parking Zone. Yeah, it takes up space.....

Other than politics, which needs to be separate on any forum, I don't see a reason to have or promote those sections of NICO.

Hey, you asked!

I don't like it...takes up too much space and how hard is it to really scroll down and look at the sidebar?

I go to pretty much all those sections, but I don't want them on Gen Chat. I want Gen Chat on Gen Chat and No Parking (OT) on No Parking (OT).

This poll will stay up until sometime tonight at which time I will make the decision on leaving them or removing them.

Make sure you vote cuz I really don't care one way or another.

It only lets me vote once. I grew up in Belleville, IL. In Illinois we have certain rights an expectations, like voting as many times as we want.

ELECT N.W. JOSE FOR GOVERNOR

to be honest, after looking at it for a bit, i rarely visit those forums. i might go into "around the house" or "the great outdoors" from time to time to get cooking ideas, or outdoorsy idea. i used to go into politics, but there are too many emotions in there lol. i'm not going to vote because, either way, it's no sweat off my back.

I think it's a pretty good idea, it's not that difficult to just scroll down a few more inches to see the rest of the gen chat threads. It'll bring more traffic to those areas and help keep it organized.

But to be honest, I didn't even notice the new links until I saw this thread and had to go back and check them out.

Probably depends on your screen resolution as to how annoying they are.

God, those links look like CRAP!

If someone cares, they will find the subforums.

Doesn't really phase me - I use the activetopics command to find everything to reply to - I don't think I've looked at a forum other than the Altima forum in weeks...

Doesn't look to bad though IMHO...

Agreed. For one, it lacks the borders the rest of the page has. At first, I thought my internet was screwed up!

Well I was going to wait until the "I don't like it cause it's different." wore off first. With polls closing, voting no.

It doesn't really change GenChat though...just makes no parking more noticable!!

Why not make the No Parking Zone a subForum of NICO General? That would put it at the top of the forums main page. That should draw more attention to it.
