Current placement of hot thread / fresh thread is kinda out of place.

may i suggest move the HOT / FRESH threads entirely to forum.lowyat.net ?
by doing this, main page will be solely dedicated to news,
and forum page can finally has its own main page as an anchor.

The main page too confusing also. I need to check on the date 1st to read the latest news.

LOL there are 3 main types of lyn visitors, 1 only see IT news/pricelist, 2 popek popek kopitiam, 3 garage salesman/customers.

right now when i first access the page without scrolling i see no pricelist, i see no editorial news, i only see event (sponsored advertorial), and ads.....

Current main page design is bad.. Not fully compatible with iOS safari as the page won't fully display.

Why did LYN roll out a 1/2 past 6 job front page?

considering that the forum is most visited and most famous of the lowyat.net site, perhaps the forum button deserves a much prominent and more better spot then current.

the homepage design is also downright messy and makes it look so cluttered. feels very alienating

hmm.gif LYN admins are not stupid, they should aware of all these issues.

that's why i say "suggest" to put in forum, they might have other plans with the main page.
