Maybe we could ask Agora to add a red alert button next to the green message button. The red button could say something like "New Off Topic Message" it could be a hot link that would take you to the new off topic message if you pressed on it. The button would disappear after 24 hours unless a new off topic message us posted. Awareness of new off topic messages might facilitate people using off topic rather than the main forum especially given loss of PM. As some posted earlier we need to get the non essential stuff off the main board for everyone's benefit.
