I just got back from my trip (much fun) and I can't even make it through my subscribed threads let alone catch up with the rest of the forum.
What do you do when you've been gone for a while? Do you try to catch up or do you just let it go? What are some of the things that help you catch up if you do?
Hit the mark forums read button. All of your blue chocobo problems will disappear :)
I have this problem nearly every weekend. xD I tend to do most of my browsing during weekdays while I play XIV on weekends, and this means that I pop in on Monday and go "Oh boy, lots to check."
I start with my subscribed threads, picking out threads that I want to read most or want to stay on top of. Then I check the staff forum, and the XIV forum, and then just use New Posts after that as I browse what people are talking about right now.
I just don't bother.
Likewise. I have a ton of subscribed threads I haven't looked at in a while. I just browse through the new posts search for threads now.Quote:

I never have this problem because I am here constantly.

This is easily the best solution.Quote:

Are you kidding me? I can't even catch up on a day to day basis.
I suck.
I LET IT GO AND JUST JUMP RIGHT IN LIKE IT NEVER ENDED
Search my name to find threads where I was quoted so I can respond if I want, then just go to new posts and see what's happenin'
As I quote it a few days late. I'm usually mobile lurking at work so I never post then I forget to later.Quote:
