New posts in Sneaky Petes Place?

I've noticed new threads/replies in Sneaky Petes Place are no longer showing up on the "latest threads" listings on the top of the main forums page. This a new thing?

I was curious of that too. I added this years Black and Blue xmas tree to the old thread and have had no responses.

I replied to this thread yesterday...

Starting hunt for the right Viper

...and the thread didn't show up in the Latest Threads either, but it's in the 'New Owner Questions' forum. It showed up there today after some other new posts were made to it. Something funny goin' on.

this thread showed up for me

Yes, we're changing which forums show up there.

Yes, we're changing which forums show up there.

If Sneaky Petes is gonna become a "where posts go to die" forum, that *****. I can see some of the seldom used forums not popping up in the most recent posts, but I would think Sneaky Petes is one of the more popular forums. Please reconsider. What other forums that currently show up on the top 10 are on the extinction list?

It's not dooming any thread to extinction, by any means.

I just think without new posts up there, it will end up being a "out of sight, out of mind" type forum. I know we can manually scroll to the forum and open it to see whats going on, but it was much easier/user friendly the old way. If it was a low traffic forum I'd understand it not being on the most recent posts list. It just seems like a bad idea to take a popular forum and put it on the same level as the ever popular "SCCA Speed GT World Challenge" (last post in 2007) forum. I hope I'm wrong.

'Latest Threads' seems pretty self-explanatory. Why wouldn't all the forums be included in the latest threads?

 

[TowDawg]

Gotta agree with you guys. I noticed it when I had thread going and then the mods moved it to an area that doesn't show up in "latest threads" and it pretty much died right there. If you click on the "new posts" tab, they should show up, but not as many people know about that.

If its gonna stay the way it is (which is a huge failure, IMO), there needs to be a sticky letting people know what forums no longer show up in "recent posts". This way they'll know what forums they need to manually scroll to to check for updates. Since this thread is the only info about the changes, I bet there's hundreds (thousands?) of people who haven't noticed the changes and have no idea there's new posts in some of the forums. I'm still not sure which forums no longer show up (besides Sneaky Pete and Regional forums) and which new ones do show up in the "recent posts" list.
