"Yeah. I looked for it too. You should drop that in the suggestion box. I am sure Paul would give it some thought."

In reply to a post of mine in another thread, which said :

"Well that is what started me thinking - so I was looking everywhere for where it says who this site is aimed at, who it is meant for, what the purpose of TB is etc.

I know it used to be somewhere on the front page as Gabu said, but I can't find anything related to this now?"

So here it is?

Just a question for Paul really - about whether we used to have this and has it disappeared intentionally or not?

A welcome message is a good thing to have front & center. It used to be there but got buried. I'll add it to the list...

Thanks Paul. :)

The message was seen earlier and appeared as :

Which was exactly what I expected but then it was edited - why?
