• Café Life is the Colony's main hangout, watering hole and meeting point.

    This is a place where you'll meet and make writing friends, and indulge in stratospherically-elevated wit or barometrically low humour.

    Some Colonists pop in religiously every day before or after work. Others we see here less regularly, but all are equally welcome. Two important grounds rules…

    • Don't give offence
    • Don't take offence

    We now allow political discussion, but strongly suggest it takes place in the Steam Room, which is a private sub-forum within Café Life. It’s only accessible to Full Members.

Help Please! Why does 'Home' take me to Litopia.com?

Anyone else find it annoying that clicking on 'Home' takes you to the external site? Maybe this was a decision to get more traffic there but honestly, it's driving me crazy! To get back to the main colony page, it seems I have to scroll up to the top of the page and click on the logo.
Thoughts, @AgentPete ?
 
This is a matter of some discussion atm :) See here:


I'm happy to do what folk want, can you suggest a compromise...? :) p.
 
It seems others (@Sedayne) have also commented but I can only speak for myself! I am pretty useless at finding my way around places in general so when I do find a tried and truth path, I stick to it. To me, personally, when I am in the Colony doing writerly business the last thing I want is to be sent to Litopia.com (which clearly has many attractions but of a different order). In the world of the internet, 'Home' is the convention for reaching the home page on the site that you are on, so I would suggest we stick with that. It would be great to have a separate button or logo to access the external site from the home page as well.

I’m also finding it annoying, but thought it was a bug not permanent.
