I don't like it at all. I am OK with having the messages at the top with the debate forums, but support forums? Ugh. A better way to drum up interest would be better use of the Newsletter as Mercola and Natural News do. Another way would be to start giving out deserving ratings to good and important messages in the News forum again. I am not sure what is up with that, but I can promise you that it is cutting down the number of posts made there.
