I've several times noticed "new post" markers on The Lounge, Sport, Playrooms and Introductions, in the General section, when there have been no "new post" markers on Announcements, Technology, Birthdays, Introductions and Feedback.
The effect is to give a rather attractive alternating silver and gold pattern. I just wondered if the order of the sections, alternating the more popular with the less popular, was intended from the beginning to create this effect?
I also wonder if I have too much time on my hands.
Of course by posting this I'll ruin the pattern too.

Oh well, beauty is transient.
