How you read the forums
I was wondering how everyone else reads the forums.
Normally I click the "view new posts" link and then read everything, and only post in some which I feel I can contribute.
I thinks halls does the same. But how do people actually read the forums?

i just go down the list where the folder icon shows new posts and read them, and yes I try to read them all but only post where I can contribute.

Re: How you read the forums
I used to do that, until I found the "View new posts" link.

That is what I do, too. I guess just because that is how I always used to read forums, and the "View new posts" page just seems a bit too unorganized for me.hallsofvallhalla wrote:i just go down the list where the folder icon shows new posts and read them, and yes I try to read them all but only post where I can contribute.

Dude, the view new post button is too advanced for me, i just scroll down and see what has changed... sometimes i post, sometimes i don't, depends whether i have much relevant to say.

Re: How you read the forums
I do the same thing as Pax. The "View New Posts" button helps a lot.
Re: How you read the forums
I also just kinda scan for changes. Particularly if I know I attempted to contribute something. I've had the new post thing miss a few things I wanted to see unfold

That has happened to me a few times as well. The new post feature sometimes misses some posts.

I just look for the open folder showing new posts, and post were I think I can help...or just to put my two cents in ;
