One of the members mentioned it can be hard when you initially join to find your way around.

We're here to help
There is one quick and easy way to keep abreast of all the new posts and topics. When you log into the forum on the right above the categories/boards you will see three things listed
View posts since last visit
View your posts
View unanswered posts
If you point your mouse cursor and click on the first one 'View posts since last visit" it will pull up a list of all the new posts since you were last on. Once you have the list up you can either go through those topics that interest you by simply clicking on them one by one (use the back arrow to return to the list but beware, you can only use the back arrow so many times before the list starts telling you there are no new posts) or you can open the list and then right click on each topic of interest and select the 'open in new tab' option, that way you dont have to worry about the list refreshing on you at some stage. Sometimes I open the 'view posts since last visit' list and then open the forum again in a new tab and simply go to each topic on the forum page referring back to the list as I go. I hope I made sense, sometimes I speak pure gibberish
Other members will post hints here too and again, if you have a question about finding your way around, feel free to ask it here
