    You browse the net and later decided to register on a forum, after verifying the link, you are then registered.

    You log into your account and now you are logged in!

    So, what is the first thing you do after that?

    Depends, I lurked here for a few weeks before I registered. So, I didn't need to read the rules or stickies. Other sites that I just join because I have a question I read the stickies first.

    Check account in [UerCP] as you like. It 's the first thing that I usually do when I have already registered.:) Then choose any particular sections in that forums that you want such as posting forums or creating a new topic. It's interesting to take part in there.

    After I logged in for the first time, I....
    1. Go to User CP and update my profile, avatar, signature, etc.
    2. Then go to the "Introduction" section and introduce myself (since most forums like new member's introductions).
    3. Then go to the rules, policies, guidelines section to familiarize myself with the forum rules.
    4. Then go to the new posts to see what's cooking.

    Agreed!

    What I would do is read around the forum introduce myself and then post in sections of interest

    Usually update my CP first. Then when I come to the forum I'm usually looking for a specific section when in most cases is the Buy/Sell/Trade Section.
