Default Attention: About Modifications Forums

Some of you may have figured out that the Modifications Forums are no longer on the main forum page

For those of you who are unaware of the change, the Modification forums have been moved to their own page, accessible here, or by clicking on the "Modifications" link in the navbar, or the "Mods" tab at the top of the forums

Thank you,

vB.org Team

I would like to make another suggestion for this change.

For a trial period (depending on the activity of the vast majority of our users, let's say one month) I propose that the "mods" button up there is coloured differently. Something, ANYTHING, to catch the eye of the people who still might even miss this thread and wonder where the Mods section has gone.

Even a single forum named modifications that would act as a link to the mod forums.

I like the idea of hiding the modification forums. Sort of an i.q. test. "If you can't find the mods, you aren't smart enough to install the mods" sort of thing

(yes, I'm evil. you like it too. admit it.)

Yes, not everyone can be as smart as you and the ones that are don't go out of their way to let everyone know they are.

There's a difference between being smart and being a smartass

When the forums first disappeared, I posted a thread looking for them too. Gotta be able to laugh at yourself from time to time my friend.
