Socializing: how do you?

I used to go to the forum and click on new posts, but the Pad is so much more interactive now. I always seem to have some number of alerts tagged so I check those first. That usually directs me to the gallery at some point. New posts has gone down the list for sure, but I never leave without checking them. And finally I will scroll through the forums for anything I might have missed which usually leads me to the store in some manner or another.. Lol. So I cover pretty much everything each morning when I log in...
Over my coffee.

Love the being more interactive thing..I used to beg scrappers from here to go to Facebook as is easier for me to interact, but now the pad is getting so amazingly interactive.... is like I can stay here ALL DAY!!!!!!!! and love every minute!!!!:beat:heartlub:beat
 
@MrsPeel The status updates are on the Forums page down at the bottom on the right. Underneath New Posts :)
And YES, we have to organise a meet up this year :grouphug
 
@MrsPeel , you aren't missing out on too much in my gallery - its been rather empty for a very long time :P I hope to fix that soon though
 
My process is that I clear my e-mails 1st. I get alerts for most threads I respond to or start, so I'll open all of those and check them/deal with them/respond to them.
Then I check my alerts.
Then New Posts.
Then I head to the gallery to comment.
Then I {try to} step away and try to get something accomplished IRL :giggle.
 
I used to let my gallery Messages pile up and then do a major return-the-favor spree when I had lots of time, but now there are no gallery messages. The up-side is that now I return the favor much faster, so hey.
Generally...
1 - alerts - like comments I've gotten, reply to comments if needed (omg LOVE comment replies!), return the favor
- like posts that replied to or tagged me, reply if needed
2 - New Posts - marks the forums read that I don't care about (MOC Layouts!)
- read stuff that's interesting
Then when I'm out of New Posts, I will sometimes just go hit New Layouts and start commenting on stuff. Or sometimes I scrap. Or whatever. :giggle

I usually head to the forums, and click on "New Posts." Then move down the list opening different tabs. After that, responding, reading and such, I head over to the gallery.

Lately, I'll check out the notifications after I do my responding and reading between the gallery visit. For the gallery, I usually look at pages if someone commented on mine, and return love... then I look for layouts that grab my attention in the thumbnail size. Something usually catches my eye.

Exactly what I do too!!
 
Right now I head straight to the MOC forums to read through those, and then to the Polly forum to read through the MOC threads there. After that I try to hit the other forums as I have time. I tend to hit "Mark All as Read" a lot in January ...
