I think we could have the whole Read new/Message center/Set profile/View bookmarks bit at the bottom, but we don't. I don't know why that was done that way.
Bunch of wanna blessed-bes. Nowadays every girl with a henna tattoo and a spice rack thinks she's a sister to the dark ones.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
You do have read new and message center at the bottom, you realize?

I'm not seeing a great need to move Set Profile, myself.

I think we could have the whole Read new/Message center/Set profile/View bookmarks bit at the bottom, but we don't. I don't know why that was done that way.
A couple of reasons. Two of those links already exist down at the bottom of the page, grouped in with the navigation links. The other two are links you're not going to need for the tasks you're performing at the bottom of the page, which are navigation and posting, and redundancy can just as often be confusing as helpful. That's most of the why.

It's also a question of how often you do certain things. I'm often Navigating back and forth in a thread or heading to the Message Center. I rarely need to change my profile.

Right, that's another reason why it makes sense to have it (a) in a prominent place but (b) out of the way of the things you're more likely to want to do.

Oh, wrod, of course. I change my tagline wicked often, so it feels all problematic and urgent to me. But if no one else feels the same way forget I asked.

Of course. I was just describing that one group of links, compared to what's at the top left. I like things just exactly the way they are.

Has there been love in here lately? Because I love this board. It's like, instant feature gratification for the obsessed.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
I came here tonight to post that VERY thing. I love the builders and the Admins and everyone involved with its existence (and I'm not even drunk).
