    Default How Do You Arrive Here?

    Q: How do you arrive here at the Org everyday (or however often you visit)?

    We want to get a sense of what methods you usually use, to see if we need to improve navigation in some way. I've listed a few guesses of popular ways to get here, above - but I'm sure there are others.

    Thanks for your input.
    Be well. Do good. Keep in touch.

    I type "tot" in the address bar, totalwar.org comes up and I click it.

    First I check the filemanager, than I either type "for" or "tot" in the adress bar. I therefor selected both the bookmark for the forum and the frontpage.

    Thanks to tabbed browsing function of my browser and my broadband connection, one section of the forum is always open in my browser. I do not turn off my PC, it runs 24/7 that's why I don't need any bookmarks. However I chose the most suitable option in the poll for it.

    Who can forget the address of his favorite vault on the net, so that he has to bookmark ?

    When I was a child
    I caught a fleeting glimpse
    Out of the corner of my eye.
    I turned to look but it was gone
    I cannot put my finger on it now
    The child is grown,
    The dream is gone.
    I have become comfortably numb...

    It's in my favourites.

    Open the Internet and within two clicks, I'm here.

    The bookmark takes me to the homepage by the way, and then I navigate my favourite forums manually.

    Thanks to the wonders of Opera's tabbed browsing system, i need never remember the .org forum address again. It's tabbed along with about 14 of my other favourite websites.

    Initially found the site by searching for a guide to RTW. I found Quietus' Guide for RTW on a Google search and whallah......there was the Guild. I saved it to my favorites folder, and use that most of the time.

    First time I was surfing (on the sea) and looking for intresting tips on shogun... found the forum and registered...

    by now..

    - start up computer
    - enter my password and click enter
    - double-click IE
    - click in browser bar
    - use backspace a few times

    and now, the big moment:

    I type: "f" and not just an f, but a real nice f. then, suddenly IE understand me and sais: want to check the .org? I say yeah! and click the white bar that appears under the adress bar. and then, I grab a cup of tea and read my pm's

    ***

    above is crap
    but about the "f" is true. I just type an f and the adress appears

    I type totalwar.org in the browser, click to the forum and log in.

    I'm ashamed of posting on a forum, let alone a forum for games, so I clean internet each time I've visited. Am I weird,do more people do this, or am I just a nerd in disguise?

    I have the front page as my home page, and then use a bookmark to the forums, usually that is faster than waiting for the frontpage to load and clicking forum.

    When using Opera, or Firefox with SessionManager, I have the forum home and several forums tabbed. With Internet Explorer I generally use a UserCP bookmark.

    My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.
