I'm just playing catch-up these past couple of days :)<br /> I'm definitely no good at starting new threads though - I'm really grateful to you &amp; all the others who do such a great job at starting so many good ones. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-30106 Fri, 09 Dec 2011 08:41:44 +0000 MH.Abroad 30106@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I used to go through the boards page and comment on every single post that applied to me right before I went to bed, as well as sporadic posting throughout the day. </p> <p>Now that we've moved and don't have internet at home however, my posting has gone down dramatically. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-26803 Sat, 03 Dec 2011 04:25:11 +0000 BSB 26803@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a very curious person. That would be my secret. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25645 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 19:16:00 +0000 winniebee 25645@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I usually just peruse new posts in the evening while relaxing on the couch : ) Like MsMini, I usually post to what's applicable or interesting to me (mostly anything pregnancy related!) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25617 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 18:52:45 +0000 Mrs. Pickle 25617@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm on here everyday and post on anything recent, even if it isn't in the ttc boards. When it comes to parenting topics I just say what I would like to do when we have kids, not what I am currently doing. I like that it makes me aware of things I have never thought about when it comes to parenting. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25600 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 18:20:36 +0000 Mrs. D 25600@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No secrets from me!<br /> I just make sure to try and come back everyday. That way I'm less likely to miss an interesting topic to comment on. It doesn't matter to me if I'm just agreeing with what everyone else has already said or not, I just make sure to comment if I can. I know how satisfying it is for me when a topic I started gets lots of responses (here and in other forums I've been a part of), so I comment so other moms can get that happy feeling too!<br /> I also think about what's going on in my own life and pregnancy right now to find inspiration for new topics, and look for jumping off points in other conversations for Spinoffs, because I don't want to be a threadjacker. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25586 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 18:00:36 +0000 MsMini 25586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't have any secrets either, I just do a quick browse of the front page, and read and answer to anything that is interesting/applicable to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25581 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 17:52:36 +0000 HabesBabe 25581@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I open more threads that I reply to (I'd say I reply to about 25% of them) because I usually don't have anything good to say, or have something to say that someone else already has. I think it's hard to add such insightful comments all the time (but @blushink does it all the time! jealous). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25574 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 17:46:10 +0000 daniellemybelle 25574@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm not a prolific poster by any means, but I definitely use tabs on here and Weddingbee. I go through probably the first 5 pages of the boards, opening tabs of any threads I find remotely interesting, and then if I have something to add I will post. I think it's definitely an efficient system which probably allows for more posting! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25356 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 12:55:07 +0000 Adira 25356@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MrsBrewer: I'm just hoping that all this time in front of a computer doesn't affect fertility or cause me cancer, haha! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25343 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 12:51:15 +0000 sandsandmore 25343@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lately I"ve only been responding to posts that I can offer input on, so my post count has drastically dropped. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25339 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 12:47:33 +0000 MrsBrewer 25339@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: So true, same here.....gotta love desk jobs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25315 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 12:35:23 +0000 Adira 25315@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@mrsjyw: Ahhh, it's like we're the same person! :P I also spend 5 days at work in front of the computer and Hellobee is always an open tab for me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25301 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 12:28:48 +0000 mrsjyw 25301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Now that I think about it, I think my secret to a relatively high post count (even though we're just TTC) is spending 5 days at work in front of a computer all day! LOL. I can't help but read and check HB often, so I comment back and give it a "future baby" twist! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25297 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 12:26:16 +0000 Rosie Girl 25297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No secrets here either! Well, except in the morning, DS gets to watch his cartoon (Busy Town), so I have down time :) So, I guess you could say Busy Town is my secret! I just open the first page though, and scroll down, commenting on any threads that catch my attention. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25254 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:58:39 +0000 MrsBrewer 25254@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Great thread. I would love to try and post more, but I'm just afraid that I won't offer much feedback on the TTC process. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25252 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:55:04 +0000 Adira 25252@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sweetchic: Tabs are the best. :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25251 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:54:08 +0000 Meridian 25251@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Adira: I do the same thing! I start with like 8 open tabs of topics that interest me and go through them :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25233 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:29:22 +0000 Andrea 25233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>No secrets. I am pretty boring. I normally only read the first page, so only the most recent topics and reply if I have something to say.</p> <p>For new threads, just anything that pops into my head. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25232 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:28:10 +0000 Mrs Green Grass 25232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I don't post a ton...I wait until I really have a question that I want an answer to or until I think of a topic that I think will last awhile. I want my threads to continue... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25231 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:26:45 +0000 Adira 25231@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My posting isn't as high as some, but I'll open a bunch of a posts at a time (right-click - Open Link in New Tab) and then I'll go through them all, tab at a time, read them, and respond if I feel like it's applicable to me or if I have something to say on the topic. I'm not so good at coming up with posts though. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25228 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:21:08 +0000 Mrs. Sunglasses 25228@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>i just think of everything in my life and micro analyze it, or ask others for their advice. ha. I guess if I wasn't such an open book I'd be thread less. ;) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25219 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:09:10 +0000 tejbee 25219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like I'm left in the dust with as much as some other bees post! I don't know how they do it... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25215 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:07:08 +0000 mediagirl 25215@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I will usually just pick and choose which topics interest me and then I'll read and if I have something to say, I'll post. Sometimes the topics are controversial. If I don't know enough about the topic to say anything, I just stay away. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25206 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 11:01:47 +0000 mrsjyw 25206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I know that I have random post topics come up in my head depending on what DH and I are starting to go through in our TTC journey and also just random TTC questions I've had...</p> <p>As far as commenting, I read through the first few pages and comment on the ones that are relevant to me and when I can offer info back. I also make random comments on topics when I learn something new. After the first few pages, I go through the older pages that I may have missed and try to revive some old topics. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25201 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:59:35 +0000 MaisyMay 25201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Since I am not on here as often lately, I usually just tell myself that I want to read and reply to at least X number of threads (usually 5 or so). In regards to creating threads, I ask y'all the questions that I'd ask friends or tell what I would share with friends....okay, I share more than I'd share in real life. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25200 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:59:27 +0000 tequiero21 25200@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>no secrets here too. i just post if i can respond. usually, if i don't respond, it's because it's not applicable to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25198 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:57:42 +0000 Mrs. Marbles 25198@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I want to know this! I am always in awe of how great thread topics are created and how everyone posts as often as they do. I like responding to posts but try not to respond if I don't have personal experience with the topic. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25197 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:57:09 +0000 Mrsbells 25197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Lol I personally have no secrets which is why my post count isnt that high, I just click on posts that interest me and respond to them, if I see a post that reminds me a question then I create a spinoff thread. but thats about it </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-are-your-posting-secrets-on-hellobee#post-25195 Thu, 01 Dec 2011 10:55:09 +0000 mrbee 25195@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mrs. Bee and I were talking last night about how everyone has "posting secrets"... things that they do that make it easier for them to post a lot.</p> <p>For example, I will randomly pick a board category and then I force myself to try and come up with an idea for a thread. Kinda random, but that's probably my #1 trick for creating new threads! </p> <p>I realize that my trick isn't that useful for others though, because my goals are different from the average hive member: I try mostly to create new threads, to keep the hive jumpin'.</p> <p>What are your posting secrets... how do you guys manage to post as much as you do? </p>
