    Default How Do You Browse the Village?

    This question has been asked before, but we have so many new people, I thought it might be fun to hear the answers again.

    How do You Browse the Village?

    I, personally, click on New Posts. I used to just look through the different forums for new things, but that was too time consuming. So, now I do New Posts.

    Same here. For those who don't know, near the top of the page is New Posts. Also near the top is quick links, click & a drop down menu shows, click todays posts & you get just todays posts..

    I do the new post search, but that was only after someone else told me about it. I will on occasion read thru a forum if I'm interested in the topic (like OAMC).
