I've just noticed something...when I first log on I read the main page then scoot straight down to the Trash Bin to see if owt's been deemed unacceptable THEN enter General Chat proper.

I'm the same with the local rag too....front page headlines (usually 'Man pushes trolley into Witham horror!') then straight to the obituaries.

:roll:

I generally work my way up the fora from the bottom up (if there's new posts) and then threads from the bottom up. I usually open the fora and the threads in new windows to make things quicker, and end up with several quadrillion open windows :urff:

View posts since last visit, weeding, sisters chat, trading and maybe general chat if anything catches my eye. The trash bin is always good for a laugh on a sunday morning or even viewing posts early on a sunday before the mods have woken up. Something about alcohol and 2am makes people slightly more 'expressive'.

But on the whole most of what appears on general chat goes of topic very quickly and becomes a slanging match/flirting match/two way conversation.*

Very little of any substance seems to be discussed anymore.

Ms Strange - "Boing" - Let's debate. HL has changed but if we don't talk about it then nothing changes and we all drift of to ...God forbid Darkness sites. :twisted: HL is nice people.

Won't post on the proper thread but 'currently listening' to Rosklide '98 at 320/kbs and for all you mp3 phobics (as I am) this is high quality (why? because it even passed my doorstep) this is the 'dogs balls'. Am I listening in Flemish? No, I'm bouncing. And that's nice.

@ RS - One in the bag! :wink:

straight to general, look at anything with an interesting title, then if i have time (and patience) the less interesting ones, then sisters, then jokes.

Being MacCentric, I come in (oo-er missus) via the e-mail route and then kinda root about.

I open my PM's first - if I have any - after which I open each section with "recent posts" in a seperate browser window allowing me to update threads while reading another.

Threads I've started.
Threads I've posted on.
Threads that catch my eye.
Anything else that gives me an excuse to avoid what I should really be doing.
