What's wrong with View Latest Posts? Your idea will just waste screen space IMO.

I think view latest posts is just fine; although maybe make the font size a little larger or maybe make it bold so that it stands out more.

Actually, I saw it after a week from the time I registered. I was seeing everyone in the Who's Online list "Viewing Latest Posts" and I didn't know what it was. :D I agree the letters should be bigger or even bold

I suppose that having it in small blue print at the top right of the page isn't the most visible place on the forum, but you have to remember that it looks nice atm, and changing it can create unnecesary heated debates (as have been proven, silly arguements over an ignorable matter)

Why would new members want to be on that page?

Most of the time a new member wants to know what's happened in their thread and their thread only - they can subscribe to that thread or check again later but I'd be surprised if they sat around on the latest posts page.

More seasoned members who would actually use the page would have noticed it I'm sure.

Use this brilliantly retro latest posts page :P
