Please re-work the navigation on this site

After weeks now of using this new community and really trying hard to get used to its functioning I have to report that the most frustrating thing with it is the confusing and inconsistent navigation through the site. I feel like I spend far more time trying find questions to answer than I do answering any. The following too long post will review the five different ways to get to the actual full list of posts and end with a plea to simplify down to one efficient, consistent, straightforward method.

Navigation 1 - To get to posts in Community News and Community Help via the Home menu button.

1) Click on Home. 2) Wait for the scrolling panel to show your choice then click on the panel.

This brings one to the full list of posts. Click on a post to read and reply. The back button works to return to the list of questions.

Navigation 2 - To get to posts in my groups via the My Feeds menu button

1) Click on My Feeds. 2) Click on My Groups on the right hand column of options to open the list of groups. 3) Click on a group name. 4) Scroll to the bottom of this rather static short list of apparently random selections of old questions. 5) Click on View All.

This brings one to the most recently posted or answered ten posts and the group resources. To see all the posts, scroll to the bottom of this page and click on All Discussion at the cost of losing all the group resources. Click on a post to read and reply. The back button does work to bring one back to the list of posts.

Navigation 3 - To get to posts in my groups via the Groups menu button.

1) Click on Groups. 2) Click on My Groups in the left hand column of options to open a page of too large thumbnails. 2) Click on a group name. 

This brings one to the most recently posted or answered ten posts and the group resources. To see all the posts, scroll to the bottom of this page and click on All Discussion at the cost of losing all the group resources. Click on a post to read and reply. The back button does work to bring one back to the list of posts.

However, clicking the back button again does not take one back to the list of My Groups but rather to the All Groups page.

Navigation 4 - To get to posts under Q and A (AKA Help Center)

1) Click on Q and A. 2) Click on one of the large blocks.

This brings on to the full list, with page controls at top and bottom, of posts. Click on a post to read and reply. The back button does work to bring one back to the list of posts. Click the back arrow again to return to the page of large blocks to choose another category.

Navigation 5 - To get to posts under Ideas

1) Click on Ideas. 2) Click on one of the large blocks.

This brings one to the full list, with page controls at just the bottom, of posts. Click on a post to read and reply. The back button does work to bring one back to the list of posts. Choose a different category by clicking on the list of options on the left hand side of the page.

Why five different styles of navigation? It confusing and time wasting. Please find someway to combine the best features of all these five varieties and work to give the website a uniform style of efficient navigation. I feel that #5 above is the best option in that one can effectively scan through multiple topics of interest.

Please consider the mock-up for what I would consider a better design for reaching and efficiently working through my groups that I will post below.
