Steam Community Updates: Not the most important things to show on the main page, but are nice to see for those who want to get in the loop.
Latest Posts: Another way for newcomers to see how IBIS rolls, but I do not think highlighting problems with the server or in the comminity would be beneficial, and there are few things discussed in the forums that will bring newbies in. Also most regulars know how to get to the forums by bypassing the site.
Search: Completely useless from my experience.
