Community Chat

[On It]

This is how I read the forums. The most recent is shown first and they descend in the order posted. It is a mix of all topics. I have not been posting on the boards all that long compared to others. Until more recently than I hate to admit, it did not occur to me to select a category from the menu to read posts. I knew to select one to create a post. 

I am so bad at technology.  What may be obvious to others is a mystery to me. I certainly did not realize until today that not everyone sees every post because they have specific categories they use. I am on an IPad. I cannot use the forums on my phone and have never tried my computer.

Last summer I did an all day progressive post under Sports showing a big soccer tournament and the wild horses having to wait for the field. Some of the regulars who enjoy the horses did not respond. Now I think I know why. By the time I get good at this, it will be too late.

@On It  I read the forum like you do. I figure that way you can browse all the topics under one roof so to speak.

@On It 

I'm with you, I'm not very 'puter literate at all either.

I also just made the realization and found it interesting that some people just stick to certain forums.

Like I said in the other thread, I like to view all the forums because there are so few postings in the first place and I don't want to miss anything! haha

I do both.

I start out in All Forums, then choose a specific category to see what's new.

@On It.  That's the way I have always read posts.  If you just read just one forum, you miss a lot of good information.

I "view all topics" and read the latest posts too.

@On It I read them just like you do and I've been here for years.

I view all forums.  There are interesting things throughout the forums, some I wouldn't have seen otherwise.

What is the difference between Community Chat, Among Friends, and Q Talk? They are basically the same. Perhaps they should be combined. Beauty, Fashion, Handbags, and Shoes could be combined. Kitchen and Recipes could be.

Always have viewed all.
