WELLLLL DOH, IT JUST DAWNED ON ME!!! SILLY RABBIT THAT i AM.
That not everyone does FR like I tend to!
Silly me.
How do I do it . . . let me think . . .
I think first, I click on the LATEST ALL THREADS list.
Then I click on the MY COMMENTS because that takes a long time to load.
Then I click on MY MAIL
Then I read FREEPMAIL because usually my comments is still loading--I have it set on full messages so it takes a while to load even on DSL speed.
Then, if I haven't had a message from the THREAT MATRIX, i'll click on that shortcut or on a message in one of the other listings.
I'll usually read the MY COMMENTS messages to me and then TRY AND get caught up on the TM or at least the last section or two.
i THINK one thing that does is get me to the personal messages fairly quickly and gets them responded to fairly quickly.
Then, I'll probably click back and forth amongs all of those FR listings and threads every 15 minutes or so.
Nothing obsessive about FR about me!!!! LOL!
Wheeeeeeee.
My sketchy knowledge of this comes from a poster on another forum who I have been following for years. He lives in White Rock, B.C., and at one time was a member of a B.C. provincial government (or the head of a B.C. political party -- I can't remember which). Sorry if this topic has already been discussed. I'll update if I find any more information.
I use to do that and then this thread became full time +, so I haven't see my comments in months ;)
