This site is a complicated mix of different software stacks, including a forum, content management system and a wiki.
Unfortunately, this is becoming too troublesome to manage, and the visitor numbers are dwindling, which makes it necessary
to simplify and consolidate the site into fewer components.
To start this process, a new forum called News & Blogs was created, which can also be accessed from the top menu. Replies to
blog posts will be rendered as comments.
Users are requested to please move all their blog posts to this forum. This section will (within a couple of months)
become the new home page of OraFAQ.

Interesting, I will now be able to read the blogs I didn't before reading only wiki and forum parts.
I think you could add some filter for the "Most viewed" section, for instance:
- the first topic (from 2010) is in a sub-forum that has an overall of 124 posts
- the second one ("OS/390 2.10 with Oracle 7.3.3 and TNS client error") is from 2002 and no more interesting
- the third one (password file "pwd got corrupted") is also from 2002 but is still useful
- lower, "Best Institute In Oracle Applications In Hyderabad" is just a stack of "mine is the best one"
In the section "Recent Post" maybe a "distinct" on the query: currently out of the ten posts we have four "Re: Is MOS down?".
Maybe a "Recently updated topic" instead of "Recent post" section?

OK, I've applied some changes and tuned the SQL a bit.
Hope it looks better now.
PS: Unfortunately I'm not much of a designer, but the interface can also be tuned if necessary.
