Howdy, RPRities.
So I had a pondering I felt like putting into a topic instead of a Suggestions form, because, why not?
Right now I am a member of over fifteen groups. Three of them I own, the other twelve being various RP-related groups I am affiliated with (either I RP in their Furcadian maps or directly in the groups).
As I get to see in the sidebar listing every day, that amount of groups builds up along the screen pretty quickly, and sitting below this list is the Notifications Box. Unfortunately due to such a massive amount of groups listed out, I can't notice that box so easily to see when my epicness expires, when I get a new notification to connect with someone, or when one of my own groups has new members wanting to join it.
I consider the Notification Box more important than my listed groups--I joined the groups, I know what they are. Could it be possible to either:
It just seems more user-friendly this way to me. I don't have to go through the effort to remember to scroll down my screen a bit to find the box. I can just glance quickly to the side of my screen and see if anything has come up. Boom, done.

I consider the Notification Box more important than my listed groups--I joined the groups, I know what they are. Could it be possible to either:
1. Move the Notifications Box to the very top of the sidebar?
or
2. Make it possible to collapse the side-bar list of groups, much like we can on the Dashboard?

Love this idea. It's been implemented!
Awesome, much better, though visually I see that's going to take some getting used to-- HELLLOOOO notifications box! *saddles up beside it* How you doin'?
Thank you, Kim! Really, that's much better--I hope other people benefit from it too (and don't panic from the sudden change of locations).
