How do you read the forums?

[whyzee]

How do you guys read the forums? There is a lot of interesting information here, and now there are even more sub-forums, so jumping back and forth between favorite sub-forums can be slow and frustrating. What I have been doing for the last month is using the: « View Updated Threads, Last 24 Hours »
in the upper right corner, to catch up on topics from overnight, (don’t you people sleep?) and then refreshing my browser every hour or so to view any new threads or posts. For what it’s worth, just curious.

I do the same thing. I find it saves a ton of time and is a lot easier then jumping from forum to forum. I dont really miss any threads becuase I usually make a couple stops here a day so I am easily within the "last 24 hour" threads.

First thing I do is go to my CP and see if there are any replies to a thread I made or in, then if I have any I check my PMs. I think click DRN Forums up top and go from top to bottom searching all the threads I like. :)

I mainly check my email and see what other people have responded to posts I am taking part in. Then at lunch I look in the forums I like.

RE: How do you guys read the forums?

Interesting topic, I usually just check in on the home page and see if any of the latest 7 new posts are anything im interested in. (pretty much anything except the "jetting for xx250" type stuff). Because I think alot of people, especially newcomers, check out DRN this way I think an improvement would be to have the top 20 new updated threads instead of just 7. :)

I go to the main forum page and open each of the forums that I'm interested in (and have new posts) in a new window. The I can quickly jump back and forth. While one thread is loading, I'm off to read a different forum. Quick and makes good use of any loading time. Never have to stare at a blank screen.
