Sorry for not replying. I thought you would figure it out for yourself.
There is a drop-down list on every page so that you can open threads in the correct forum.//

@Corrosive Joeseph @j_sum1
It is important to remember that those who do not have access to Whimsy already cannot see it on the front page.

Whimsy cannot be viewed or accessed unless the user has been given permission - which usually means contacting an Admin or Moderator

No wonder I can't see it. Thank you.

Well, that's a change. When I joined I could see whimsy on the main menu although it was about a year before I asked for access.
It did not occur to me that it would not be visible.
My apologies.

I must apologize too............ And when I joined, Whimsy and References were always there, with a note to ask for entry.
Just like j_sum says.

To be honest, when I joined I could see both forums, but I went away for a couple of years and when I returned they had disappeared from the front page. I assumed it was a mediocre anti-spam defence or some such - before Melgar's script

I remember at one time many years ago everyone could see the Whimsy forum, but when you tried to view it it required a special password.

Yea, me too, when I joined I can see whimsy, staff lounge and refernce, but some time later they disappeared from the homepage.
Weirdly the test forum (Test area for testing spam prevention mechanisms, moderated by streety) is still visible from the homepage, but a password is required to access unlike other "hidden" subforums.
