Which board do you visit the most on The Knot?

cincy2011 · March 2010

I feel like it's an undertaking every time I come to The Knot, b/c I visit my local board, the AAW board and the June 2011 wedding club board. Sometimes between those three boards I can spent 3+ hours on this site!! Which boards do you visit on The Knot? Which ones do you visit the most? How much time do you end up spending on each (average time per day)?

I am always on AAW. I used to visit my local board a lot. But not so much anymore.

I am usually on AAW and DIY boards. The Phill board just isn't clicking with me. It feels like the snarky bride board!

</div><div>Yeah, there are a couple of girls on my local board that are very into saying "you have to", "etiquette says", "it's proper to", etc. And I realize that I am very opposed to that type of attitude. So I still go there frequently to find out local info that I will never have b/c I don't live in Cincinnati, but I don't always post.

I mostly come on this board and the DIY board. I sometimes check out my local board but they don't really post that often. I lurk all day long such a shame.

MrClintonsFirstLady09 · March 2010

If I am on TK I am here on the AAW board. My local board, IMO, is not for us. That's just how I feel about it. I have noticed when AA brides make post, no one answers them. I was a little offended that I could not go to my local board for help. But it is ok because if I need anything I will either research it myself or come to you ladies.

<div>Funny you should say this, b/c the other day a girl on my local board posted about "hair extensions" and I was cracking up at the responses. It was just weird reading what everyone said...that is probably the moment when I felt the most disconnected from my local board.</div>

They make you feel like you have to follow what etiquette says and god forbid you go against the grain. They try to take your head off. I rather be with my own people. Screw etiquette! That is why I'm starting my locs this week.

TysWife2Be · March 2010

Most of my time is spent here...followed right by my Oct 2010 boards..

My local boards arent as active...

<div>That is so exciting about starting your locs!!! When did you make the decision? I went natural about 9-10 years ago, so I'm all about beautiful, natural hairstyles. <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-smile.gif" border="0" alt="Smile" title="Smile" /> </div>

rodeo417 · March 2010

I have been natural for 2-3 years now. I slipped up and had it straightened with a hot comb. Now my ends are straight and fried. So I am getting kinky twists and going to loc it as it grows out. I need to look neat for any new job that I start.

MIABRIDENTAMPA · March 2010

I am on SOfla knottie board the most

<div>Ooh yeah, hot combs are dangerous! I used to have my hair pressed with one when I first went natural and when I finally found a stylist that helped me transition (the healthy hair way) she showed me how messed up my hair was from it. Good luck with the new style, the twists will look really cute!</div>

YasJas2011 · March 2010

I am on AAW, the Atlanta Board and the June 2011 board the most. I have never been to the NC board and from the things that I have heard, I will not be going.

rodeo417 · March 2010

Thanks sis! Right now my hair is cut into layers and is just touching my shoulders. They should be a nice length in a year!

mandikaykay · March 2010

I am mostly here and since the wedding is getting closer, the June 2010 board. But my local board is not very helpful and kind of dead, except for the vendors that keep posting. So annoying, and the girls on the board are all fighting about it and I could care less.

tyboyd · March 2010

I'm always lurking on this board! It's one of the shortcut bookmarks on my browser. lol. I go to the Houston board every other blue moon. That board is slow and lame!

mahoganieyes · March 2010

My local board, September 2011, and diy

adgenya · March 2010

I actually lurk on a lot of boards but mainly post on this one and my (somewhat dead) local board. Every now and then I post on my club board. Etiquette and wedding party are really fun to lurk on because the regs are pretty funny.

Spim7 · March 2010

I spend most of my time on the AAW board and the April 2010 board. I have no idea how much time I spend on here. Probably a couple hours a day. It just depends how much work I have to do.

ladylum · March 2010

AAW board (greatest amount of support and NO SNARKINESS!), May 2010 board but they are all kinda young and sound the same, and my local board which is dead.

lca315girl · March 2010

June 2010 and AAW. Every now and then I pop in on GIS and my local board, but my local just doesn't seem to really care about the AA brides that post.

OFF · March 2010

I mostly visit AAW. I used to go to my local board a lot but it went dead after some key people got married last spring/summer so it's no longer fun or helpful.

StephB1185 · March 2010

At this moment in time I visit AAW, NEY and my local boards. I really don't have anything else to visit, since there is minimal (we picked out our colors yesterday..) planning going on! But I have to say, AAW is very active and I love coming to it first!

KSTURGIS · March 2010

My june 2010 and this board. I pop in on my local if i have a city related question.

jwilk002 · March 2010

I'm usually here and October 2010. My local board girls are wonderful, but they're just not as active...not many weddings coming up in Baltimore until late spring/early summer, so I have a feeling that will pick up soon....I just keep TK open in another window while I'm at work and take "mental breaks" for a few minutes every hour...I'm sorry to everyone who has snarky chicks on their local boards...that is BS at it's finest!! I would tell them there is a BOARD all of its OWN for that foolishness!
