It's kind of thrown me off a bit. Maybe I need a life, though. Come to think of it, maybe we all need a life other than TRF.

Hahaha - totally kidding folks. I'm addicted and I know it. I'll see you kids on TRF.

I must say that I respectfully disagree with this decision. First, the caveat that I appreciate all of the hard work of the moderators and administrators making this a wonderful site. I also do not quarrel lightly with such powerful individuals, I see no need to risk unnecessary loss of privilege.

However, the bulk of traffic on this site certainly seems to be focused on the Rolex General Discussion board. I think, based on this, it rightly should be the first forum available on the selection page. It doesn't seem right to look for inadvertent visits to the Vintage section. There are several members who appreciate the older models, but Vintage should stand on it's own as a forum of interest. The order of forums ought to be reflective of interest on the site - Rolex General Discussion at the top.

Thank you for consideration of my politely offered opinion and reasoning.

My heart raced a little when I saw you had replied as I was opening up the page. I thought I was going straight to TRF Hell, or maybe Purgatory!

Well the fact of the matter is many people get a bit forgetful and just click on the 'General Discussion Forum' without giving the wonderful 'Vintage Rolex Forum' much regard. So I thought a little more prominence may remind some that we do have a great appreciation for vintage pieces and the history of Rolex.

You might say I'd like the Vintage Rolex Forum to be 'outstanding'.

I knew that was the reason!!

Looks like it's a resounding, "Please put it back to the top!".


So please return it to the top.
