    I’m not sure I can even be bothered to say “please”, so:

    Oi, Road.cc: TURN IT OFF!

    What idiot thought it was useful?

    This previously good website’s interface keeps getting worse 🙁

    This is a horrible feature, all too common on web sites these days – perhaps logged in users could opt to switch it off (or there could be a ‘hide these notifications’ option in the flyout?).

    Also the recent comments seem to have been relegated to below the recent thread creation again.

    Two big steps back, just as things were starting to get a bit better.

    Right, it seems that mouse detection of the X icon is off, if you get it dead centre it works ok.

    I’m also getting the panel coming in halfway down some stories (the stealth hd 2 camera review is one) instead of at the bottom of the scroll.
