I can understand how you might have missed that box, considering you have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of the page, well below the trending threads section ends, just to find it. Just for the record, on a 100% zoom browser window on a 25" monitor, I see 9 trending threads before I need to scroll. It now takes 3 scrolls to reach the bottom of the page.

Please explain to me why the trending threads page was made to look like this? It looks absolutely nothing like ANY other page on the forum and this is the page you are directed to any time you click the forum button on ANY page of this website. There are two completely different sets of UI on this site now, this trending threads page which has a directory containing dots (that don't work) and every other sub-forum page, which uses a combination of colorized/non-colorized logos and bold/non-bold text to differentiate between new content and read content. You know, like every other forum on the internet does.

Please tell whoever is in charge of actually programming this stuff to revert back to the original version of the trending threads page. This is insane. Making sure every page of your website utilizes the same UI is basically the first rule of web design.
