An idle thought entered my mind as my mind was idling just now...

How many of you actually browse forums in the traditional meaning of the word, i.e. clicking into specific forums, having a mooch through the posts, reading and replying as something catches your eye? I ask this because to me, forum categories are little more than a quick context check as I bash the "New Posts" button, and look at the postings of the last few hours. I can't remember the last time I specifically clicked on any forum except for the For Sale section.

So, are you a traditional browser, or a New Posts advocate?

First, subscribed threads. I subscribe to every one I post in.
Second, new posts.
Third (or first often) MM by clicking section.

I only browse 'traditionally' when I'm looking for something that I know is there but hasn't been updated in a day or two.

As well as this: google chrome, default theme (blue!) and man-size pages.
 
I check my old posts to see if there's anything I need to respond to. I keep a couple of boards open (GD, Music/Film/TV, Price Checks atm) then mash command-r/F5 until something catches my eye.
