I've asked before, quite a few times.
I can understand why MN needs to guard against people spamming petition links all over the place, but I don't see why one thread pertaining to a petition relevant to the board it was placed on can't be tolerated. MNHQ does, of course, sometimes include petition links in its own campaign threads.
This surely doesn't just affect FWR - there are petitions relating to education, SN, road safety etc etc which get lost in the tumbleweed of the petitions board. It might be good if links to petitions were copied there, and that it was made easier to find, so that members could find petitions on all sorts of things more easily, and for petitions which don't have an obvious home.
I can find the petitions board easily enough because I know it's there, somewhere. Many people have no idea, until a thread gets bumped enough to show up in active (and then may not note the board name). I can't believe MNHQ really wants the petitions to be displayed with about the same accessibility as Vogon planning applications.
"On display? I eventually had to go down to the cellar to find them.”
“That’s the display department.”
“With a flashlight.”
“Ah, well, the lights had probably gone.”
“So had the stairs.”
“But look, you found the notice, didn’t you?”
“Yes,” said Arthur, “yes I did. It was on display in the bottom of a locked filing cabinet stuck in a disused lavatory with a sign on the door saying ‘Beware of the Leopard.”
