What's the first forum you check when you login to DU?
I always go first to GD: Presidential, then GLBT, then the Lounge. Don't know why.

4. LBN.
Then the Lounge, then GD. If I'm in the mood to be enraged I'll check out GD:P but that doesn't happen often. Lastly, I'll look at the Maine forum, a quiet little place where time stands still.

5. Presidential.
To me, it is the most irritating*, but sometimes has one or two worthwhile posts, so I get it over with and go on to the good stuff, like here.

* irritating because I'm voting for Obama, and anybody he decides to pick as VP is fine with me.
I would not vote for a Republican for any reason ever, period, and never have.
Why get all worked up over speculation that means nothing to me.

18. The Moderator Forum
using my double-secret access. I like to see if I'm in any trouble first thing. Which I never am of course.

O8)

Then on to the Lounge and LBN. Then, a search for locked threads.

22. My DU, to see if anyone has paid any attention to me. Usually they haven't.
Or if I ever get a response, it's usually from someone I've blocked off, so I can't read their comments.

24. The Lounge. That's where all the real news is.
When our lizard alien overlords land in Washington D.C. to take home their GOP bretheren, we will hear about it in the Lounge first. In GD or LBM it'll take a few days for the reality to be accepted. GDP will suddenly become quiet as a tomb when all the agent provocteurs are gone, although a certain stench will remain for many years to come.

26. Start with My DU....after I stop sobbing from the lack of attention,
Edited on Wed Aug-20-08 01:02 PM by Evoman
I usually click on Gen. Discussion. Done there, I go to R/T, then AA, then skeptics, then (if I have time) the lounge.

Basically always the same order. I very seldom go to breaking news, because most of the interesting stuff usually starts discussion in GD anyways.

And I really don't like GD: P or it's predecessor....never go in there anymore.

27. I go to that page labled "latest discussion" as it is my bookmark for DU
it has the latest posts in the center and actual latest breaking news on the right (ads on the left)
I skim those then usually check "my DU" or come to the lounge. Sometimes I check rural, AZ, computer, or cooking first.

Sometimes I come to DU before I even check my real e-mail :blush:
