I usually go to my user CP to see if I have any messages or reps/salutes. It's been a habit of mine for awhile now on the other forums I belong to.
I have it bookmarked to my USER CP. Lets me see any PMs and New Replies to my posts first, which are typically more important. Once I go through them, I browse New Posts.
Same here. Then i check the Who's online page to see what topics are being read. This gives me a fair idea of whats hot and whats not. Regards, TBA
Like some others, I check my CP first to see if there is anything that needs my attention, a message or some other thing. From there it is New Posts to see what is "hot" at the moment, and then I guess I just "browse" around looking at other sections.
Like others, first a look at CP, then hit the New Posts. After that, it's kind of a random look at new members, forums I haven't visited for a while, or just browsing.
I glance at the "welcome" block and after seeing no new messages click "New Posts". After that every topic is fair game.
Usually I reply to PMs first then, I guess im alone as I start in the Free Fire Zone and work my way up from there.
The User CP - re messages or subscribed threads. Then it used to be new posts - but lately since I've been on more while off work (back on Monday!) it's been today's posts.
I always go to the user cp first, to check to see if anyone saluted a post or threw some reps my way so I can thank them before forgetting to do so. Then I take a look at the subscribed threads to see if any need attention, then on to new posts. Sometimes I go over to ww2t if things are slow and bounce back and forth....
