Which sections on EC do you check first?

Support and advice followed by Fun and games.

Support because I feel I can help
Fun and games coz I get bored

Don't do technology, I know NOTHING
Don't do entertainement, I know NOTHING

I let people think that I am ignorant instead of opening my mouth and letting them know that I am ignorant :lol:

 

No particular order, I just click on random sections, have a look and then continue on. No reason for this, just the way i've always done it

 

I do them from top to bottom. don't know why, it just seems more logical to me to do it that way.

 

Coming Out Stories
Support and Advice
Anonymous
Chit Chat

 

i just randomly browse

 

Generally it goes like this:

Support and Advice
Coming Out
Anonymous
Chit Chat

Sometimes I go into Introductions - but I usually find I've run out of time by then (I try and read the support sections carefully), so sorry if I miss people's intros! Not intentional - just lots of non-EC stuff to do!! Sometimes I don't go into Chit Chat. I rarely (if ever?) go into the fun forums because I don't really have time - not that I don't want to socialise with you guys!

But if I'm in a hurry I will only go to the Support and Advice section (where I spend most of my time alongside Coming Out) and maybe the Anon section.

 

It's interesting, I always instinctively check EC in the same way, I skimread chitchat, start at the bottom of the page then move up, hence why I ended up here.

Then I start properly reading posts, I go to support&advice, coming out, anonymous, entertainment, by then I've usually ran out of time and have to go. Occasionally I go to Fun & Games, very occasionally, and I'm sorry to admit I very rarely visit the welcome pages, I really know I should but it's hard to start leaving welcome messages especially when I'm aware I might not be on the forum again for a while.

 

I go top to bottom and what ever pop up that was last posted in once i gone through all of those i usually click on random topic and look for new post

 

I close my eyes when im choosing which section to read first. lol
anyway I just goto the forum page first, then choose one that interests me from the last posts column.

 

i just read the thread titles then click onthe intresting ones

 

When I first come in if I see any attractive thread on the new posts links I start from there.
Afterwards I go to the sections page whatever that's called

Then I generally check chit chat, then fun and games, then support and advice (sometimes) introductions and etc and sometimes coming out stories.

 

I always check new posts for some reason and then take it from there. Just to see what I missed while I wasn't online.

 

It depends on thread posts... or if I know I left a thread last time I logged off I check that first

 

To me, it makes the most sense to go in linear order from Chit Chat to the Anonymous section.

 

Ok! you all probably know the first one!
Fun and Games.....
Anything I see of Martin's
Support
Anonymous
Chit Chat
Welcomes
Paul...I wanna see the Staff Room!!!!!!!!! :tears: :tears: :tears: :tears:

 

Generally, I'll check for:

1. new threads
2. threads I've replied to
3. threads that I can add to

in Support and Advice, Health and Well-being, and Anonymous Discussions.

After that, I'll usually check out the Chit Chat threads. If time allows, I'll look at Entertainment and Technology. I'll look at the other forums usually only if something jumps out at me.

 

I go down the list from chit chat, most of the time I wont go into Feedback and I never go into fun and games.

Support sections should be at the top imo.

 

I start at the top and work my way down.
