Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

All of a sudden, the drop-down on the left-hand side that lets you jump to other parts of the forum just disappeared. I have to navigate back to the home page and use the drop-down there.

Vanished for me too. One second there. Next second gone.

Gone for me as well. I have to reload the main page to jump between forums.

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

Now a different one just showed up. Feedback: it sucks. Change it back.

EDIT: Now the different one is gone, too...as fast as it appeared. Methinks someone is monkeying with our forum.

But the new one has the new Political Film subforum on it. That's always my first stop, so I'm glad I don't have to go through Other to get there now!

True, now I don't have to pause before posting my thoughts on Bulworth.

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

Yeah, the new one seems to be okay. The one that appeared and disappeared again only showed the site areas.

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

I never use that drop down. I was going to offer mine to one of you who didn't have one, but it sounds like everything is good now.

And now it's gone again.

I think I'll come back later when they've decided what the fuck they're doing.

Wow, I can't even find Tech Talk without this! Help me Obi Wan Kenobi!

My guess is they are working on it as we speak and it will be back, better than ever, very soon!

I just checked the left hand drop down and everything was there. What's with all the drama?

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

Nice that "Other" is highlighted... wonder if they want to steer non-believers there.

And I keep clicking on that one accidentally trying to go to Politics. I hate the new dropdown.

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

So is the left hand drop down gone for good?!? I use that one a lot. It's pretty frustrating not having it there anymore.

It's still there.

I think it looks a little different today. Higher up.

Wait. Couldn't you have used the bottom-right drop-down menu?

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

I'm using IE8, and it is at the very top of every forum page immediately under "release list".

Re: Forum-choosing drop-down gone?

Weird. It does not show up for me using any browser here at work (IE8, Firefox 3.5, Chrome.) But when I logged into my home computer, it showed up for Chrome only.

Agreed. I used to have to use the bottom one because the top one wasn't inclusive.

It is very nice that both are "complete" now.

I got used to mainly using the bottom one do to it's full functionality, and sure enough, it seemed like everytime I went to the upper one is was to try to find a forum that wasn't listed up there.
