Default What forum first?

Ok...transparency time. I just noticed that when I come to the AGF site, I tend to click on the Classifieds forum first...then the Discussion forum second. As much as I gripe about my particular case of GAS, this obviously does no good at all. Oh well...

So, how about you? Purely out of my curiosity, and in all honesty...which forum do you usually visit first when you come here?

The Today on AGF forum. I think that might be the winner, if you can add it to the choices..

Default What Forum First?

I'm pretty new here, so General Discussions first, followed by Show and Tell.

I stumbled into the Harp Guitar forum the other day and was fascinated by it. I could almost see myself with one of those! Amazing instruments!

Carbon Fiber first, if there are new posts, otherwise Today on the AGF.

Straight to General discussion then to Play and Write. I seldom go to the classified at all. I have no interest in looking for something used to buy.

Yep, me too. I look at Classified once in a while out of idle curiosity.

I voted for General Discussion, but 99% of the time I look at Carbon Fiber first (and often only). I never use the "Today on the AGF" function. "Today" does not even appear if you are not logged in, and I generally browse without signing in. Logging on is reserved for posting.

I may visit the Classifieds 4-5 times a year, but I am not looking to buy anything else these days. Mostly it is curiosity when someone mentions a guitar that they have for sale.

I do a quick check of the Amplified section and then the Classifieds before I finally settle into the General Discussion.

I chose General Discussion, but I usually only click the New Posts and scan the first page or two, rarely look at the Classified.

New Posts. I literally never go to any sub-forum.
