jokes on front page

[IggyB]

Entries to the crossword section or chatterbank do not appear in the 'most recent' section on the front page, could I suggest that jokes are also removed from this section.

[MarkRae]

Seconded.

[AB Editor]

Any reason particularly?

[bibblebub]

Welcome to the AnswerBank is a bit too chirpy also

[naomi24]

What's wrong with chirpy?

[AB Editor]

We were actually thinking about removing that bibblebub and replacing it with some "at a glance" profile elements for logged in users.

The reason we don't have cb and q&p on the front page is the sheer number of posts in each other those sections.

('twas only said in jest)

[AB Editor]

Oh, I know :)

[IggyB]

It can attract quite a lot of posts which in turn spams up the front page when trying to look for actual questions. As you can guess i dislike the category and would prefer to avoid it but more than that it does seem odd that the front page of a q&a site would feature so many non questions.

[Ratty2E]

I think it would be a good idea to have the categories of most recent posts on the front page as you do in latest posts. I have clicked on so many that I wouldn't have bothered with if I'd known they were jokes.

[IggyB]

That would make them easier to avoid if they had to stay on the front page

[AB Editor]

Thanks for clarifying IggyB, we'll discuss it this end.

Still not caught anything Ab Editor, I see?

[craft1948]

I don't see the problem, some of the 'serious questions' are more laughable than the jokes.................

[AB Editor]

You don't catch things with a light-sabre!

You're talking about my previous banana dangling activities, right?

Poor bibble! And how disrespectful calling him 'it'.

[cupid04]

Looks like the same old rod to me!

[AB Editor]

If you had your sound on Cupid you'd hear the "thrumm"

[Psybbo]

Sorry to sound stupid, but where is the Front Page?

[ChuckFickens]

Opposite the back page, which is far more interesting, the back page is where the really juicy stuff goes on.

Is it still "Chuck's Fantasy Chicks" on the back page?
