Do you go forum to forum, new posts or just hang at one or two?

I usually read via new posts. I'm always leery to post though because I wonder if they are thinking 'where the heck did she come from,' since I'm not a frequent poster on the other forums. :rotfl:
 
:laughing: i do the same thing. i always check the new posts first and then i have one or 2 specific threads i go and check.
i was nervous to post at first and then i said "I've read enough stranger's posts, now they can read mine. or not. who cares" :)
 
Hi there I go to my "subscriptions list" first...then usually the new posts on this board or the budget board...but what I REALLY want to know/hear is about your signature line...the donkey falling down a waffle hole :rotfl: I always mean to ask when I see a post from you

It's a line from Shrek 4. If you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend it. Funniest movie we saw in a long time.
 
I read mostly new posts... if I see one with a "Lock" beside the title, that one is a must read! (unless it's been sanitized by a mod before locking!)... go to community, budget boards.

There are also a few "mega threads" I go to the last page to read.

Roll my eyes at some threads, after reading the title and preview, and just bypass those completely. Most of those need a "beating dead horse" icon beside the title!

:rotfl: well now it has to go on the MUST see list I thought it was probably from a Shrek movie but didn't want to assume..you know, ;) for all I know you own a donkey .... just couldn't figure out the rest
 
I mostly hang out here, but we're thinking about booking a WDW trip for January so I've been hanging out on the resorts, restaurant, and Disney for adults boards lately too. :)
 
I read forums. I go to the community board first, then head to photography to get my disney fix then I head to W.I.S.H. If I have time I'll go to some others and if I don't do it in that order I'm all messed up. Anal huh? I hardly ever post but I always read.
 
I started out on the Theme Park & Attraction board when I first joined b/c my family's first Disney trip was a month away. Afterwards I found myself here on the Community board and pretty much have stayed since we haven't had any Disney vacation plans.

Now, with another Disney trip being planned for December 2011, I'm finding myself going back and forth posting between here and the Theme Park board. I'll post on the other boards, too, if I have a question while planning.
 
If I am actively planning a trip I go to several different ones, if I am dreaming of planning I usually stick around the community board.

answering all those continuous ticket questions I don't see how you get to read anything :rotfl:

When the "lock" is next to it, if I was not interested, I am now, because I want to see why it got locked lol. Glad to know I am not alone.

I read from the new posts, then may search for a paticular post to see if anymore info has been added.
 
I treat forums as I do the TV remote - lots of flipping. I'm always wondering what is showing on the other channels!
 
My subscriptions come to my inbox, so I check those first. Then I go through the whole forum from top to bottom, ignoring the subforums that don't interest me (like off-site, DLRP, UK, etc). Then I click on anything that looks interesting. Sometimes I reply, other times I don't.
