I did post right when this thread was started...you need to click on it in order to activate it and you can very easily click the "x" to close it.
also, it has never just "popped up" for me, as someone mentioned, when I am trying to click on someone's profile...it is located at the top and bottom of threads, not near every post and, again, can very easily be closed.
I don't believe that we are getting rid of it so I just wanted to post to give you my thoughts and let you know that
thanks
