Ed has already explained that the related question thing is buggy and they are working to fix it so that more recent and relevant questions come up.
Get a grip and wait for a decent outcome.

ummmm

OFGS....

If something has changed on the site check Eds blog before posting about it. Or better still, have a look to see if others have posted about it.

Why do we need it? We have managed for all these years without it. Who, to be honest will read them, I certainly will not. So tell me what is the point of them?

ummmm

Sorry that sounded grumpy...

ummmm

I have clicked on them twice today because the title of the thread took my interest.

We managed a lot of years without washing machines and televisions. Don't be such a luddite.

The theory is good - should someone ask about (say) Mendelssohn then you should get a list of other questions which relate to Mendelssohn for further info/interest.
Trouble is if you get someone come on and say 'Help, I'm stuck' in crosswords then you get a list of everyone who has ever been stuck or asked for help.
It's only hours old, perhaps when it has been refined it will be a good tool.
Or you can just ignore it.

Just look at all the rubbish that has come up at the end of this thread, does that not prove what a stupid idea this is, there is nothing relevant about any of the postings.

ummmm

People moaned when they introduced the sub topics

People moaned when they introduced the latest posts box

People moaned about avatars

People moaned (and are still moaning) about badges

And now we have weeks of listening to people moan about this

ummmm

It needs tweaking, carandrog, that's all. It's day 1.

I wish ed could stop my screen from freezing!I'm sure it's to do with the pesky ads.

Carandog did you even read my answer? Did you even look at Ed's blog?
He knows it's rubbish and he's working to fix it.
If you dislike it that much you could always take up knitting or something until it suits you.
Really. You are being selfish and petty.
