A question for GFY regulars.
 

How do you read the forum? Do you read every single thread or just from people you're friends with? I'm so used to reading all threads on other forums. But this forum has so many posts and pages worth of threads for just one day. Thanks.

I read only your threads

I read only Juicy D Links threads.

Too funny!! You know this is an adult business forum right?

I scan mostly. Looking to see what catches my eye. Here's my method:
keyword in topic
thread starter name
# of views

I do not ready 90% of the board.

I skim thread titles, and who's the O.P.. From there, I make a decision.

"New Posts" :)

it is hard for me too, though i would have wanted to scan all treads since my last login day or at least daily. I always press Today's Post but unfortunatelly there are not shown all, only last 150 posts, so even if i would login every day to check posts, i still couldn't check them all. I scan the titles, and read only those who catch my eyes and have some replies

Usually just skim over the titles

This post is the only one that is not copy & paste :winkwink:


Mate, no way shall you be able to spend time reading "all" threads on this forum as to many threads are starting every moment of the 24hour day, lol and night for the sarcastic mother fuckers. :thumbsup

Read the threads that are either important to your position in the business or seem interesting to you from the title. Then read the whole of that thread. :2 cents:

i read those which i think it's interesting.

I open only threads which have interested title,no matter who created them.

I look for titles that catch my eye.

I ask fatfoo to message me if he finds anything worth reading. I let him do all the grunt work.

I read through everything and then I separate what's bullshit and what's not.

i read around one out of 50 threads.

nickname
subject

I'm superficial looking at th new posts and if I'm seeking for some detailed info, the advanced search function can help.

Hrmm. I read only yours.

Must work well.

I just skim the thread titles, then look at the posters and views. I usually avoid multi-pagers because it takes too long to catch up. :)

Im still wondering what you actually know about this industry or do you base all your descions on he said she said. Post a pic of your self and step up to the plate

always by thread title...

New posts > interesting title and/or username that is either interesting or known to cause drama = Me reading gfy.

Now.. why do you think im reading this one?

Title and nickname, that's how i pick

I do the same. You learn how to filter all the bullshit on here after a while.

Bingo....

If you think this board has pages worth of threads for one day now, you should have been it back when I joined, and I'm considered a noob by many standards. It's dead slow now in comparison.

I scan by subject, then look at OP name to determine what I am going to read.

True. Back in the day, it was not uncommon to have 5 new pages daily.

Interestingly enough, the only forums growing in activity are blackhat webmaster forums and other "pushing the envelope" type of webmaster forums.

I read the thread titles and select which ones interest me.
