It shows what the most active forum topics, across all forums are.  Why remove it?

what is the use of being on front page...I'm not against a statistics page,but why on the front page...I see the forum as something different from the review big section...

I'm not saying to remove the news of events and releases,etc.just the little section that shows the Prog Music section active topics...

It's to attract people who are there just for the reviews to the forums.  They'll be like 'Hey, those look like some topics I'd like to add my input to!' and voila, new forumer.

I was actually attracted to join the forum due to the link on the front page.

So, maybe it is a bad thing!

Well, I didn't like to say anything but...

I've just seen The X Factor from Cardiff. There are some seriously strange people there, Snow Dog (no offence).

I'd just like to say I like Active Topics.

She didn't look too impressed to be compared to Vicki Pollard.
The weirdest guy was the one who was only on briefly but he had a really grey face, sticking out ears and long hair. Possibly the ugliest bloke I've ever seen!
