So, I'm pretty new to this message board thing and I am still picking up on things as I go. I thought it might be helpful to post a couple of things that I have figured out to make your viewing and messaging a little easier.

*When you pull up the home page, above the scrolling advertisments at the top right, you'll see "Home", "Talk", etc. If you click on "Talk"...it will take you straight to the list of forums.

*The icon that looks like a blue bar graph..if you click on that, it hides all of the Forums in that section. Click it again and and they magically reappear!

*When you see the little house icon next to the Forum Title in color, it means that there is a new posting in that forum.

*When you click on a forum title, it takes you to a new list of topics w/in that forum. If the lightbulb icon is in color, it means that is a new posting.

Look for my next 101..."How to post a message"

You can also click to receive notifications to topics you post in so you know when responses come in.
If you don't have much to say but want to watch responses, usually people on forums just write "bump" so they get in on the reminders. Smiler

And on the home page, it has the list of the newest topics if you don't want to have to scroll through the talk section. (Also, if there are multiple new topics in a section, only the newest new post shows up.)
