Wasn't there a forum called "Back room" just a couple of days ago?
I don't see it in the forum list on the left side of the screen?
|
|
|
|
|
The forum is still there. It's presence in the left hand menu is no longer required.

And how are we supposed to get there if there is no longer a link?
I browsed through the menus and found nothing that looked like a link to the backroom.
WTF is going on here?

Errhmm, never mind I found it in your sticky post of the Lounge.
Still wondering though what made you remove it from the menus all together.
Are you fearing for CP's reputation 
Cheers and happy new year!

So you see in any reason for doing this?
Would you care to enlighten me on this?

I have reflected on this and have consulted the oracles about this and here is what I think...
Although, I have played many a day in the Backroom's sandbox and have come across many a cat turd, I have to admit that the Backroom contributes nothing beneficial to this site. Why advertise that?
If you really want to go to the Backroom, then bookmark the link from an earlier post and use that to navigate.
Just along for the ride.

Pretty sure that a case could be made like that for quite a few of the postings which are not specifically about programming.
After all exactly how many New Years Eve comments are really needed?

The Back Room has served, and will continue to serve, it's purpose. It's still there. However, I'm no longer willing to advertise it. Those who use it know where it is or can find it easily enough.

The Back Room was actually a stroke of genius. It's akin to the metal anode rod that they place inside water heaters so that the water will attack the rod and leave the water heater alone.
The difficult we do right away...
...the impossible takes slightly longer.

I suspected that, I just didn't want to go right ahead an do it without a second opinion

You could have;
a) posted a link to offending question.
b) voted answer down and left a comment.
c) reported answer using the little flag.
The tools are provided there for doing these things, shame not to use them
