Poll question: When you enter DU - which forum to you go to first
I wonder if DU members have a set pattern when entering the site for the first time during the day.

I listed the forums based on the latest statistics of messages listed since DU2 went live.

Do you have a reason for your choice or has it become a habit?

2. I don't go into a forum first
I don't go into a forum first, I go the the 'Latest' link (not 'Latest Breaking News')

4. Depends
If there's big news I'll visit LBN first. Otherwise GD or the Lounge.

7. Activism/Events, actually.
Why? I like to read those with as few new posts as possible, then work my way up. It's usually A/E, P&C, BC&C, Media, Meeting, Lounge, GD. I don't usually pay attention to the rest.

10. Every morning....down the right side
till I hit an 'already read' story. Then into LBN to see what everyone is commenting on....then to Editorials...and if there are enough to keep me busy till I need to stop....I do not read GD till I get home at night. DU is like a fling. When all else is read, comments made and etc. DU is the last place I visit. I am NOT a fun person, do I need to mention that?

Then I go to the moderator forum.

So I chose "other"
