Could it be that we are so great at responding to requests in the other forums that users don't see any advantage to using points to post in the emergency forum?

I suspect (but don't have any strong data to prove it) that another cause is that over the last couple of years you have encouraged us to use fewer infractions... so when we see posts containing "urgent", "emergency", etc., we're more likely to edit the post to remove those words or just ignore them than to issue an infraction and close the thread. I would assume that having a thread closed and getting directions pointing to the Emergency UNIX and Linux Support forum in an infraction note would increase the number of posts seen in that forum. The fact that the canned message for the emergency forum doesn't mention that you now have to click a couple of times to get to a point where you can start a thread in that forum probably doesn't help either.

Hi, all - New to ncurses, rusty as hell with UNIX, I"m sure I'm going to have lots of questions. What forum is best for ncurses questions? Currently I'm experiencing configuration issues (I believe). I'm running Mac 10.6, and using the Terminal utility. Thanks!
