    My prediction is the overall site page views will decrease, and the Tug page views will decrease at a higher rate than the overall site. Not saying that the overall experience for the average user won’t be better, don’t twist. I’m not a huge “Tugger”, but i do read the threads there a lot, and I’ve already caught myself clicking the “Recent Discussions” link and spending a few minutes there without remembering that the Tug isn’t included anymore.

    I'm guessing a couple of weeks without being reminded that the Tug exists will make everyone here so much collectively smarter that everyone will just stop coming here altogether...

    Dark days.

    Didn’t even know there was a recent discussion button.

    Is this a big deal?

    Only for those who use a PC. The button doesn't exist for smart phone and tablet users unless they utilize the full site option.

    About 40 % of our users primarily view on a PC, and 60% use smart phones and tablets.

    This isn't right. It exists for smartphone. It's the only way I keep accidentally hitting the damn thing. Like I just did.

    That’s an awful button, I agree, but it’s different than the Recent Discussions button, which I love(d).

    I'm leaning toward linking it back with the Tug after the season. But I will take board's pulse first before deciding.

    Replace "mark all read" with "recent discussion" on mobile and everyone's a winner.

    If Vanilla was half a website this should be an easy fix.










    I won't hold my breath.

    I wish I could. This is not a case of me being obstinate.

    Overall I am happy with Vanilla. I do not agree with calling them half a website.
