How hard would it be to make the left sidebar (Forums tab) collapsible? I never use it, and it just eats a considerable amount of screen real-estate.

Sounds like a good idea to me :) Obviously for the subscribers only, as it holds those pretty adverts that everyone else gets to see.

I will see how we can add an option for subscribers to hide the left sidebar... I will think about it during the day.

That works as well.

Magu, how do you like browsing Geekzone without the ads for you? Fast enough?

It certainly makes things faster, but I still think there's room for improvement.
I have disabled TinyMCE as well, since it doesn't seem to work properly for me most of the time.

Bingo. Hence why I don't bother complaining about it.

This is done now. Subscribers can now hide the forums left sidebar by changing an option in their profile page.

Heaps better for normal browser too, that I have taking up only about 40% of my screen width.
