As with all sections on Slashdot, there will be stories available within that section that don't get posted to the main page
For real/. geeks, would it be possible to turn on a flag to get everything on the home page? Every time I metamoderate I wonder "How come this story doesn't ring a bell?". Now I understand why.
Clicking on each and every section to watch for missing stories is a bit lame, no?

I still find about stories that I haven't read in sections that are supposed to be shown according to my preferences, so that doesn't solve the issue, it seems.
That's because there's one more step. First make sure everything is unchecked on the Exclude section. But also, you need to check "Collapse Sections (show stories from all sections, unless specifically excluded)" on the Homepage tab of your preferences.
Do you mean section or topic boxes? I only have author and topic, no section and as the other poster said I see a story every once in a while in the old area that I haven't seen before.
P.S. In NS the topic list is a nice 3 column whole in FX (Firefox) it is only 1.
Collapse Sections (show stories from all sections, unless specifically excluded)
As well. If you are still metamoderating stories that you don't recall seeing, perhaps they are journal entries, or you simply missed one/forgot/too busy to read more than the title, etc. (hey, if I don't know the reason for the problem, then the PEBKAC, right?:-)
I have nothing listed under the Sections column on that page; no checkboxes at all. The authors and topics columns are fine. Checking Collapse Sections didn't help (and I don't want to show EVERYTHING on the front page).

But, we're working on a better interface for this, one that's both more flexible and comprehensible. Stay tuned.
