How Do You Browse TestYourMight?

[CrimsonShadow]

TYM has over 18,000 users now; and a bigger and bigger number of threads are posted every day. There's a lot to keep up with, and the package that TYM runs on (XenForo/XenPorta) is fairly complex, with a ton of features. So I'm curious to know:

How do YOU browse the forums? Do you:

-Use the Recent Threads in the Forum section
-Use the 'What's New!' page to check out all the newest threads
-Browse from individual forum to forum and see what's there
-Use the Recent Activity feed to see what's going on
-Use the 'Your News Feed' link to see what people you've followed are talking about
-etc

For me, it's usually between the Forums recent threads and What's New. I also hang out in TYM Chat, most of the time.

I usually get a bunch of messages every day (often from people requesting articles, promoting events, people with issues etc), so I spend a fair amount of time there too. But I'm sure everyone has their own way of getting around the site. So I'm curious to see what everyone says

Discuss!

I usually use the Recent Threads and, ocasionally, I take a look at the characters forums.

Get told about hilarious threads via the internet. Read them and laugh.

Bring an oil can and matches so I can browse the Shazam forums without tempting myself to go buy oil and matches and set the world on fire.

Nice.. Do you see new private messages and alerts when you sign in on Tapatalk? I remember when I tried to get in contact with Showtime when he was using tapa, and for the longest time he didn't see any of the messages. Haha

 

[Espio]

I just go to the Hawkgirl, Cyborg, Martian Manhunter, Raven and then sometimes the other character forums.

I also check out recent media, what's new and recent threads. I need to pop into TYM chat more often though.

To be fair, that's what you do in life 24/7. Unless you're eating chicken.

 

[Euphoric]

Lol, I don't even use 90% of the features you listed or knew they existed, I just click the forum tab and that's it.
