How Do You View The Forums?

[Reynard]

Pure curiosity: How do you view the forums? I mean, the threads and stuff?

I always just go to "Community" and view everything. I almost never go to specific forums unless I can't find the thing I am looking for and I don't know its title but I know what sub forum it was tagged as.

What about you? Do you go to a specific sub forum, or do you view everything?
Are there other options I am not considering?

Also, when it is available, how many posts per page?

I view Community so I can see everything.

I always set the posts per page to the maximum.

Community view and then mostly what im following and alerts.

I have the Community page bookmarked and mostly look at the whole list (though often enough I actually only check notifications and a handful of threads that I have already posted in in detail). Sometimes I specifically go to TTRPG General to see if I have missed anything.

I click on "alerts" and then "what's new".

Nowadays I go alerts and read through them, then switch to what's new. Occasionally, I'll click on a specific forum. I used to have posts per page set to 20 but it's since reset to 10 which is a little annoying.

Community, but I also went into settings and turned off all the tags I don't care about -- Pathfinder people don't need to hear my opinions about a game I've never played -- so it's a curated version of "everything."

First by following notifications. Next by using What's New to see what's hot and active, or by forum to follow slower form discussions. Roughly half and half for the latter two.

I have the Other D&D forum bookmaked to get to Shadowdark faster, then I normal drop down to the Pineapple thread, the Fitness thread, and then up to marvel at the D&D forum to agitate myself.

Posts I've participated in, then all of community.
