I've been wondering about this for a while now.
I'd like to know what's the most favored way of browsing the forum.

Edit: Thanks for creating the poll, Jetje :D

btw, I use method 3 - tabbed browser (Firebird)

Index page, sometimes top-down, sometimes bottom-up, depending on what mood I'm in..

i go from top to bottom, skipping Questions, Development, Movieworld and Gamesworld

i don't think i've ever read Funny Stuff - always get distracted by the lounge (well just the Sexiest Ladies thread)

I use the View New Posts query to browse - I know then that I see practically all the topics that have new posts.

Other than that - I use Mozilla Firebird, so naturally I take advantage of the tabbed windows :)

I usually broswe the site by randomly selecting a forum to visit. I don't usually have more than one tab* open (unless I am checking other topics while posting a reply).


*Mozilla (http://www.mozilla.org) is a browser which allows tabbed browsing. There is a Windows (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/default.mspx) and Linux (http://www.linuxiso.org/) version avaliable.

I usually go browse through my favourite sections one by one (Movieworld, Bookworld, Gameworld and, of course, the Lounge). Other sections I go to if I see an interesting topic from the index page.

i guess tabbed best decribes me: i open each world in a new tab, then i go through and open each topic which grabs me in its own tab, then as i finish with a section, i close that tab...by the time i do this, theres a dozen or so tabs open at the top-each a different topic; then i read and reply etc.






i just realised how arse first that is :blink:

Some would say they're more efficient. :)

I'm somewhat surprised at the huge percentage of folks using method 1 actually.
I found it to be a pretty clunky way of surfing the forum back when I was using IE,
so I used multiple windows.

Different strokes...

Lately I've been going straight to the "Report Anything Unusual" thread first, I love the drama.
Plus it's a good indicator of who you should avoid and watch out for on this board - seems to be a lot of newcomers lately.

Wow, you have a show now...

:D :music1:

I normally look through the index site in the different sections - if I want to see some replys on my posts I am first to the section.
