TL,
I see by your profile that you are pretty new to the site. I don't know if you spent time as a guest for a while or not, but a short time ago we had a major crash and Brent installed two brand new servers. There used to be a floating bar that let you jump between forums but he had to remove it as the script was to old and caused all kinds of problems. So right at the moment, I think he wants to let things go as is until he is sure that all the bugs are gone before he starts any more changes.
