fishers64 Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 So how do you get around here? Scroll up and down the board index? Hit the view new content button on the upper right-hand corner? Or just pound the F5 button until the little red numbers appear? Do you stare at your favorite forum or topic, or do you move around all over the place?

Canis Lycaon Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I click the member content tab on that bar that floats on the top of the page. Then I select 'My Content'. Quote I used to have a banner here. But that RPG is dead. What now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makuta of Time Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I scroll around, wander the place, and sometimes stare at some places. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sumiki Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I usually to the board index and then, in tabs, open the Blogs, the Tracker, BBC, SS, GA, Comics, G&T, and OTC. I then go through these forums reading through new posts and entries and moderating as necessary. After all of my assigned forums are read, I head back over to the blogs and basically lurk there. Oh and I also occasionally go through GD and make posts and such. Quote avatar by Lady Kopaka Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFlash Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 (edited) I simply just scroll up and down around the board index. Once in a while, I go hit the "new content" button. Edited July 2, 2013 by Veigar y Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Lorax Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I lurk in the BIONICLE RPG forum until a red number appears, though I also check to forum index for new and interesting topic (that's how I found this one). I'll also take a look in the S&T forum every so often because that forum was the reason I first joined BZP, and I still like to keep an eye on what goes on there.

BBBBalta Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I usually start off by checking out any new notifications (opening them all in tabs) and finishing with BZPRPG News and Discussion, assuming there's posts there. Use the link at the bottom of the topic to go to the Bionicle RPG forum and, if the topics I'm paying attention to (right now Po- and Ga-Wahi) have new posts I middle-click the little gear thing to go to open them in tabs. Then I usually use the "Forums" link at the top to jump to the index and hop over to the Blogs and OTC, both in tabs. After checking out anything that catches my eye I might jump over to the Tracker and possibly somewhere else if I feel the need to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aanchir Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I check particular forums myself. I'm probably a bit old-school that way.Generally whenever I visit BZPower, I check Hero Factory set discussion, LEGO set discussion, and LEGO discussion. I check more or less every new post in those subforums. I also check the My Little Pony topic in Completely Off Topic and any topics that interest me in Media Discussion, Digital Discussion, and General Discussion.Occasionally, I check BIONICLE set discussion just to see if there are any topics where I can offer any insight or share my opinions. Topics involving colors are the ones I'm most likely to contribute in since that's my particular area of expertise. I will also occasionally check BIONICLE-Based Creations and General Art, but I don't do that nearly as often as I used to. Perhaps it's just because I'm not as creatively-minded as I used to be, or perhaps it's because I don't see as many impressive MOCs and drawings as I used to in those forums (and those I do see, I often see on other sites as well).

Taka Nuvia Posted July 2, 2013 Share Posted July 2, 2013 I just more or less randomly scroll and/or click around Never really tried out the "new content" feature... for me, notifications are enough. Otherwise, I often end up browsing forums I'm interested in, such as GA or GD or sometimes the blogs... ^^ Quote My art collection topic - updated!

25K Now! Posted July 3, 2013 Share Posted July 3, 2013 I have RPG, Comedies, LEGO RPG and Off Topic Culture in my favourites. Very rarely do I venture out of my creative cave into the wider world that is General Discussion.

Velox Posted July 10, 2013 Share Posted July 10, 2013 I'll always start with any PMs/notifications I get, then go to the Library/OTC, then the Blogs/the Tracker, then the forums I'm assigned to, and then whatever else I want--usually just COT and occasionally BRPG and GD, among others.

ToaN Posted July 21, 2013 Share Posted July 21, 2013 I sometimes just browse around looking for something interesting (that's how I found this thread ), and sometimes I will use the New Content button. When there is a specific thread I am actively following, I will receive an email notifying me of a new post, and this email goes into my iPad email app, which sends an iPad notification, which plays a sound. Its like a doorbell, but it rings only when there is a new post! So no need to smash the F5 button. Quote The BZPower Chat is alive! Join at: http://xat.com/thebzpc I am ToaN, from the N continuum...
