Same here. It's such a shame that we allow for such important things to be miss-able.

- dang 11y agoI agree. But it's surprisingly difficult to disseminate knowledge to this community—even to all the highly active users.
- krapp 11y agoOther forums have an announcements page or a box at the top of the page template for bulletins. It might undermine the minimalism of the site a bit, but it could only be used for special occasions.
- cannam 11y agoYep, hundreds of comments on the original post, 300+ submissions on the new Apply tab on the top nav of the site -- and I'd missed it completely as well. Even though I read this site far more than I should do. Of course somebody has to miss these things, you can't reach everyone. It just feels strange when it's you. I would love to see the pattern of how those 300+ submitters came to hear of it.
