The site homepage is long overdue for a cleanup.

I'm experimenting. The expanded Change Log has gone, but can be found via a link as it always could. So has Haiku of the Moment. I've changed the blurb, slimming it down. The site visitor counter is no longer relevant. It was a conceit only, and we passed 2,500,000 front door visitors a week or so ago with no-one giving a damn. So I no longer give a damn either.

> The next release of the change announcement will take fewer lines. That fie is held on a different client, the one I use as a story uploading workhorse, so I'll do that when I upload more stories

Done now.

In case you are not aware, the site gets just under 2,000 unique visits (as defined by Google Analytics) per day. I want to try to lower the bounce rate on the home page by simplifying it somewhat.

We're keeping the branding - the look and feel - and the separate branding of this forum since it is both part of and separate form the main site.

I will fiddle with it more over the next few days. Suggestions are alwasy welcome, though O will not necessarily act on them!

Frankly, we think such laws are silly. They do young people more harm than good. How can you possibly ask questions on a gay forum without coming out to your parents if you need consent?
So it is up to you. If you post here we assume that you are of legal age to do so or have consent if not, and we do not want to know any different
