What parts of the forum do you populate?
« on: December 17, 2010, 08:58:59 pm »

So looking at the sections of the forum, I saw that DF general has 165,000+ posts
Other Games has 179,000+ posts
General Discussion has 198,000+ posts

Now for some time it's been bothering me that I leave most of the fora alone, usually sticking to OG and GD. Now, being one of the somewhat oldish darklings I remember when DF didn't have a community that concerned itself with things other than B12 games. Yet I never touch the other Fora, so I'm curious about other people, what parts of the B12 petri dish to you occupy?

I was going to make a poll... but there are a lot of little sections, seriously have you seen how big the DF fora has become? I personally usually only prowl OG and GD most of the time, I read some of the let's plays, prowl some of the Future of the Fortress thread (wasn't that thread the original reason for the forum overhaul?).
So people, please tell me where you like to prowl.

I used to be in DFGD/Suggestions and OG.  I stopped spending so much time on DF and migrated entirely to OG.  Then about a month ago I trickled into GD for the first time and now that's most of where I post.

You can tell where I post a lot in by looking at my sig.
But besides that, I look at GD, OG, and the Future of the Fortress thread.

Forum Games and Roleplaying mostly.
I also go to DF Questions a lot, usually to answer queations, not ask them.
I'm here in General Discussion a bit, but mostly just for the MSPA and Anime threads.

I practically lived in DF Suggestions for a long time, then realized that most of what I posted was already figured out and that Toady already has a huge list of things he's planned to put in.  So I migrated down here, and it's quite interesting here.

I have a tab list I open with essentially the basics. Primarily the middle forums. DF stuff, and the places around/above GD. I stay away from Life Advice. I don't need any, and I'm crap at giving some. Simply put, my unorthodox manner of living may not work for everyone.

My high-traffic places are usually GD and OG, and seeing if anything is going on in the PWYB. I do look around for any interesting community games when I'm in the mood to read through them. Forum games, I pop my head in once in awhile. Mostly the "* the * above/below you" for ease of access and playability.

 I try to look through everything on the forum, trawling for great things to grab links for and/or save, but my statistics say I've missed a lot in general discussion and DF general discussion.

Imagine a cool peice of sky-blue and milk-white marble about 3cm by 2cm and by 0.5cm, containing a tiny 2mm malacolite crystal. Now imagine the miles of metamorphic rock it's embedded in that no pick or chisel will ever touch. Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.

While I was into DF, I maintained a foothold in adventure mode and DF mode, but now I hang out in OG forum roleplaying/games, and sometimes GD.

I reside in GD, with occasional forays into other portions of the lower forums.

How do you keep up with it all? Most everyone else has withdrawn from some of the sections.
