    Nope, every once in a while they disappear on me, not so much at home but from my PC at work they don't always show up.

    I noticed they are there if you are logged in, but missing if you are not. I don't always log in when I'm on the site.

    I remember a member who complained about the Pit and a Moderator offered to shut it off for just him so it is optional at some level.

    The "Political" and "Humor & Off Topic" sections are only visible/accessible if you are logged in.

    **** Off topic/humor/politics goes in off topic, politics.****
    I see this in the hometown section but can't find a way to access it, and I am logged in. I guess I am inept also!

    I noticed this condition also some years back. When I finally did find the 'Pit' some time later I 'bookmarked' the page. Mods were no help when I inquired about this same issue. Makes no difference whether I am logged in or not - sometimes it's there at the bottom and sometimes not...

    The "Pit" section has always been at the bottom of the forum page.
    Like I mentioned earlier, you have to be logged in in order to access of view posts in the "Pit" section.

    You have to have 30 meaningful posts AND be a member for 30 days before the Pit will open for you.

    If 30 meaningful posts were a requirement it would be a sub-sub forum.

    A meaningful post means it's not "me too", or "I agree" or trolling type of post but rather contributes to the discussion presents by the OP. In other words about 90% of the posts we get.

    Looks like all my posts in those forums are gone too. Did they do away with the forum or just my participation?

    I always see the pit when signed in but I have seen others complain of the same , sometimes I wonder if some browsers may not show it ?
    When I think back on all the **** I learned in high school it's a wonder I can think at all ! And then my lack of education hasn't hurt me none I can read the writing on the wall.
