When I started playing Warhammer Fantasy Battle two years and three months ago, I never would've guessed that my newfound hobby would extend to the Internet, but here I am on LO, making my 3,485th post about a hobby that already consumes too time and money.

This is a totally random conversation, but maybe some of you will find fit to humor me. :tongue:

I'm curious about other people's LO habits. I always begin at my User CP, checking it throughout the day (and damn the server problems! :(( ). As a mod, I check in a few other places, almost exclusively on the fantasy boards.

Every once in a while, I venture into some less-frequented forums and check out the painting, sketches, and fiction that all these interesting people are posting.

And here's an off-the-wall question for someone, maybe BlackHat or Hard_Aun: who gave LO its name? and why LO?

well, when i come home form school i check LO and my email. on LO i first check my user cp and check on my recent involved posts, then i search the new posts. after a while, when there is nothing new going on i do other stuff (music, hang w/ friends, play with dog, paint/ convert, cry in a bathtub full of tears, you know the usual.). after dinner i repeat this process every 2-3 hours or so and finally one more time before i go to bed. its sad:cry: , isn't it? story of my life.

When I first come on, I check user CP. Then I always go to nids, IG, daemonhunters, rules help, conversion, sometimes modelling and then general discussion. As you can see, I spend way too much time on this forum:) When I'm on during days I don't have school and am really bored, I look through the entire forum and find some cool things, but normally, I just stick to the places that I know and interest me.

Ohhhh good topic mate!

My user cp is my bookmark so I hit that first, from there it's onto my blog to see if anyone has called in. (If you havn't go have a look, its got dwarfs!) Then I go through all the pages of new posts and finally I call into my profile page to see if anyone has left me a comment or added me to their buddy list.

I normally visit LO three or four times during the day, sometimes maybe more if work is going slow.

Generally speaking i post once in a blue moon. once in a lightly shaded green one with orange undertones anywhere outside WFB or the sketchbook however :p

I check LO alot, usually I have very little time to post though, but I try. I started on LO to get some help, but now, after quite a few years of playing (7) I have turned my attention more towards the community and help-related aspect. I like you guys, and like my ten-cents worth, so I'll be here for quite a while. Sorry...

Now this is a great topic!
I start at my user CP, see what's happend on the threads I've been posting on, returning to the CP after each one of them. Next I check the new posts and see if anything catches my eye. If not I go to the Imperial Guard forum, stroll around amongst the lists for a while then I go to the Chaos board. I don't post that much any longer (serious).
I also try (in vain) to find someone wanting to swap their Steel Legionares on the trading board:)
Other then that it's the painting, conversion and modelling boards that gets my attention. I look at what you've guys made, help out where I can and just gets a rush from seeing so many lovely models and getting many new ideas from what you've done.
To this should be added the PMs. I love them.

INteresting thread DavidVC04. A typical day for me consists of constant L.O. refreshing and looking for things to talk about (my work puts me in front of a computer, so it's not my fault that I'm addicted to L.O.{goofy} )

At any rate, my first stop is always the 40K chaos boards, as I'm a devotee of the Dark Side (says in a 'Vaderesque' voice...heh). Then I'm off to the painting and conversion forums, on occasion, stopping by the modeling section. Next in line, I say hellos to the general board, the showcase, my usercp, and finally the cite feedback and support section.

In a given day, I probably check L.O. 30 times, especially if I've recently posted a thread or images.

EDIT: At the moment, I have L.O. pulled up on two laptops, so that I can read memebers' army lists on one, and then post comments on the other. Hopefully, I can find a 3rd laptop for actually doing my work.
