Thanks for your feedback.
We should be able to bring these back up soon, the reason we had to remove them temporarily was because TechSpot News are crawled several times a day by Google bots including Google News where you will find our news headlines from time to time.
Google asked us to remove these forum headlines from the frontpage (you will still find them in other pages) so they can crawl the site properly. This wasn't necessarily their fault but with a few changes on their implementation, I should be able to bring them back up.
I'm glad to hear you kept an eye on them BTW.
