Do you ever go further than the front page of the forum when catching up or logging into the forums?
Or do you delve back a few pages, or do you dig even deeper and look into the pages from aeons ago?
Do you scroll down looking for thread titles and see if any catch your eye, or do you look down the list of thread starters first and see who the author is.
Are you a prolific thread starter, a reader and commentor or a lurker who just reads but doesnt join in.
Do you look at the front page and think 'oh god shes NOT started another thread has she' innocent redface surprisedops: (mea culpa)
and in the correct forum stylee, i shall answer my own question within my OP (to please all the picky ones..... wink yeah u chezza et al.)
I must admit i usually only look down the thread titles to see if one grabs my attention on the front page, rarely go back further unless I am looking for a thread i have been following.
very occasionally i will go for a trawl into the pages of yesteryear......but I have to be very bored and have loooooads of time on my hands lol
The search facility never works for me so i just click on page numbers at random and have a nosey :lol:
I always look at any locked threads first redface.
I generally only read the topics that look like they might interest me, and reply to them when I feel the need. I would say I lurk more than I post.
In general I tend to look at updates to threads, or threads I haven't read. However every now and again I will look further than the first page to remind myself what has gone before and sometimes I might even have something new to contribute.
biggrin
I look down first page, must admit never go past that. I often check out the locked ones just being nosey really to see why they have been locked smile then I look to see if a title catches my eye and only really comment if the topics interests me or I feel I have something to contribute. biggrin

I log in to SH go to the chat rooms lurking in a busy main site room. When I've settled with a coffee i turn to forum skipping down the list of topics seeing which tickles my fancy. I used to use the search - view your posts - to see what had/has been added to something I may of posted on. I tend to not bother doing that now as it almost always gives me the finger the first few times i try.
Occasionally I'll add to a happy b/day thread or a thank you thread though this is rare. I will however always try and say hi to a 'newbie posting' thread. after reading the threads I've found interest me at first look I then add to them, with i hope a little thought. I should read some of the ones that interest me less though as because when I have there has been the occasional hidden jewel of a thread going on. I understand not the GFZ so don't use it and the steam room i have been in less times than i have toes so that would be 13ish confused
After this I tend to go and harrass my roomies in chat until ermmm late biggrin then when i'm suffering the frustrations of insomnia I spend far too much time thinking obscure things, Thats the time i tend to start posting or occasionally starting a topic. A dangerous time for me lol it does me no favours.
Its funny because for years I never even bothered looking at the forums. It was the chat room and then the stories.
But one day I did look and as they say " the rest is history ". lol
I now tend to go straight onto the forum and see the new threads, and see if they interest me. Then I see if there are any replies to any threads I have replied too.
I do enjoy the forum banter, and even though I do not agree with some peoples replies, I must admit I do love the forum.
i always skip all the birthdays and thank you threads which i believe should be posted on lets meet up forum,ill read all the new replies on my threads if i have any on the first page,then check on the threads i find interesting to me irrespective of the OP
I post a lot less than I used to, for various reasons.
But when I come online, I scan down the list for any new juicy topics, and read those.
If I've recently posted on a contentious subject, (such as today) and someone has replied, I click on it with trepidation! lol
Then I look down recent postings to see if any of the people who I find interesting, have posted on any older threads. These might be people who make me laugh, and others who I often disagree with.
Then of course, I check out any locked threads :twisted:
Im more of a lurker than a poster
I usually scroll straght down to see if theres any locked thread.
I then look at the threads I have posted on to see what others views are
I then read the other threads that have interested me or if someones having a hiss fit
Scroll down to the bottom, and work my way up leaving out the ones i dont find very interesting till last
Locked or ones i have answered or ones of a good debate await their turn of order bottom to top
i have a quick look at any that take my interest
then i go back to chat rooms lol
