When you are a regular reader of Eurogamer.net, the layout of the mobile site can be rather annoying. Specifically it is irritating that the page is laid out with "popular now" at the top. If you are a regular reader you are likely to have already read these articles, and yet you have to scroll down past this section and past a large advert before you get to the new content.
I am sure that someone (Tom?) mentioned in the comments to the recent editor article about the site that members would soon be able to remove "popular now" from their mobile page layout. Unless I am being stupid this ability has not been implemented. Are you still planning to add this feature? If so may I politely ask you to hurry up!
If i am being stupid - please explain how I can change the layout.

It's already added. Go into your profile (hit your username in the drop down menu) and go into Display Settings. You can hide "Most Popular" there

Go to your profile, into "Display Settings" and set "Hide Most Popular and Recently Popular sections from mobile homepage?" to on.

I wish I could get rid of the banner at the top though. I'm still using an old landscape-oriented phone, so I lose about a quarter of my screen space to it.

I like the new pop up edit boxes though. Neat!

is there a reason why on the "new" mobile site i cant access the forum, there are 4 blocks, one of which goes to personal messages, but the others dont work.
using Windows Phone 7.5 on nokia lumia 800.. using the default "internet explorer" browser
it used to work fine.
