And yet we've found it - and dozens of others have found it even if they don't want to contribute - I don't believe for a minute that it's THAT hard to locate. I think some of us are haring after excuses.

Is there a link between letters to The Artist and forum posters? I have looked through the magazines since 2011 and a few names keep coming up... Perhaps some folk like interacting and some dont D

I don't pretend it's an optimal layout, and of course I don't know how it looks on an Ipad, where it may for all I know be less obvious than I think it is on a desktop PC if you just explore the site a bit. But that's not my point really - there may BE a difficulty with finding the forum, and the company could perhaps do more to help resolve that problem; but I don't believe it's the reason why people don't contribute to the forum, because they didn't when the system was different, either. The sheer number of people who do visit, but don't comment, is readily ascertained - I haven't checked on the numbers today, (there are just three reading this topic at the moment!) but it's often in the hundreds - so if nothing else is clear it's obvious that people do visit, but don't speak. And to those people I say - Hallo out there!

Guests can post, to respond to the question. I know that, because I did when I forgot my log-in details.
