Everything is by default posted to your personal blog. There ended up being a lot of posts on frontpage that were often low quality, so currently posting frontpage is no longer an option (except for users over a certain karma threshold I believe). Instead mods take responsibility to push appropriate posts to frontpage.
OK but how does one actually control where a given post goes to? Where is the control? I don’t see it. And despite what you say the one post I made went to front page!
I guess it’s not so much that I am opposed to such a post being frontpaged, as it is, like… that post was just sort of a quick note written without a lot of thought, right? Not something I am necessarily really endorsing or prepared to argue about or anything, you know? I just feel like, if a mod is going to move it to frontpage, they should put their name on it as having done so! :P I didn’t put it on the front page, I just wrote the thing...

Yeah, should edit OP properly when I get back.

You don’t currently have the choice to post to frontpage; the reason your post is on frontpage is because a mod moved it there.
If you’d like posts not to go to frontpage do PM us, and we’ll build a better system for this in time.
Oh I see. That explains it, thanks.
