Why is there no link to the forum on the main website?

I realize, there are a few bad apples, that make threads that are disgusting.. but the forum should be linked.. I don't think its smart to remove the forum completely.

I'm worried about the sanity over there right now. Waiting for signs of rational life before I make any new purchasing decisions. :lol:

There is a link. Somebody stumbled across it yesterday, but it's in a far from obvious place.

First click on Live at the top of the screen.

Now click on What is Live? at the bottom of the screen.

Now scroll down......way down.....until you get almost to the bottom, just above the upgrade prices.

It says A Community. In the second paragraph you'll notice it has ableton.com highlighted in blue.

That's the link to the forum. Nice easy to find location eh?

:(

I see the color scheme is now complete. Ableton's evil plan is now all too clear :wink:

David, the trash is piling up in here. can we have a new forum subpage... how about forum.ableton.com/moderated ??

i thought the Lounge was for off topic discussions, not shit you don't wanna deal with. if, i'm wrong then renaming it to "The Alley" would be a more accurate naming convention.
