Meta category has now been taken off front page

Warren, it was done because visitors see the front page when they visit the forum. Clutter was one of the main reason, and its one of the reasons for categories - to reduce clutter. A few categories show on the front page and other ones are not. The meta category is not part of the central forum, but rather a category about the forum itself.

Many forum programs only show the categories on the front page. Discourse allows a selection of new posts to show on the front page and the categories are accessed from a pull down list.

If you honestly feel that the community wants meta back on the front page rather than a click away, then do a Poll and let us all see if the community supports (or not) the community members who suggested it, which the forum admin agreed was a good idea.
