There is a very good reason for that!

There is sound reasoning why this format is being used and why traffic here is very heavy. The people trying to help explain how to customize what you see are NOT uninformed either. They are NOT a bunch of noobs to internet forum software either. This was not just the first thing they grabbed to hurriedly set up a forum because that's what everyone else was using, but a slow and logical progression making improvements along the way.  I'm sure lots of thought and effort went into how and why this setup was chosen to power the premier place on the internet for farmers to converse and share.

This has been discussed over and over and the overwhelming majority of users here prefer it exactly as it is set up.
