I've never gone to Active.
As I live in the future, I read GN when you are all asleep so usually go to 'Last Day'.
I ignore all the political threads and those to which I've already contributed. Don't often go back to a thread unlees I'm interested to see how the "problem" worked out, as with dear Annsixty and Luckygirl, as both were in my mind constantly.
I usually look for posts I haven't yet seen and which have less than 20 replies; contribute to the Limericks and that's it really.
By the time the UK is stretching, yawning and looking forward to a new and brilliant day, NZ is thinking about hot chocolate and a good book before bed.
By which time, I've laid my eggs in GN and like all the best cuckoos, abandoned the nest
