Does anyone use the Categories list (i.e. the forums) to the right on the discussions and post pages?
They are designed to navigate anywhere from anywhere, however in my opinion it's a bit of a mess, I can either tidy it up or remove it. Your thoughts...

I've clicked on them a few times but they only show up on the PC version of the site, not on the mobile version. You could tidy them up a bit if you like. I use the mobile version of the site more often these days.
No, I’ve never used them...and doubt I ever will...certainly not in the current format anyway.
Nope haven't used them.
Haven't used them.
I havent used them yet, but now that you mention it they're right there no matter where you are, it saves going back up to the top of the "directory structure" and back down again. Can just click directly from one subforum to another. one less click or two is always good!
I like the idea of being able to very quickly navigate to a specific forum via the categories list on the right of the screen, however I don't use it all that much so I wouldn't consider it an essential feature and wouldn't have any problem with it being removed.
I've been using "Recent Discussions," which is pretty easy to navigate. The trouble with "Categories" is you aren't shown if there's anything new or a reason to go anywhere in them.
I have used them and find them useful, but I could also do without them. Recent Discussions is fine as it tends to have what is most recent on the opening page. As I am logging in almost every day ATM Recent Discussions is okay for me.
