I pretty much only lurk, but sometimes I might feel compelled to post on Baby Names when someone asks for an opinion on the "name" Archer, and I used to post on the Health & Exercise (formerly Nutrition & Exercise) till I realized you can't fix stupid and people will continue forever and a day to consider walking for "exercise" and eating at-free starches to be the pinnacle of a healthy lifestyle.
I'm on the SIF board too. I also post a little on the Photography board. The only time I really lurk is when some (usually Allison) posts a link to some crazy goings on at the trimester boards.
I lurk on PgAL and lurk/sometimes post on Baby Names. Somehow reading about naming babies and being pg helps me feel positive. I love hearing the PgAL ladies get good news. I used to post on MC/PL, but I had to stop. I know this might sounds terrible, but I got to a point where I couldn't hear those heartbreaking stories anymore. I felt like it kept me from healing.

I typically straddle this board and MC/PL. I'm ashamed to admit that once or twice I've found my hand drawn, as if via Luke's force or something, to click on the 1st tri board. I immediately back out before reading a post.
I'm unashamed to admit, though, that if I'm directed to a "too good to pass up" MUD post on some other board I'll check it out. And laugh or fume as necessary.

Confession: I do not like the MC/PL board. I went there after my 1st loss, and here after the second two. I just like the energy of this board so much more.

I was there for about a month and got great support and feel that I gave alot too. I just reached a point where I needed to move on to positive things and like you said, I like the energy of this board better.
I like that we have a lot of TTC discussions, but that there's fun stuff too.

I picked all and then some. The only boards I post on are here and my local nest board. I lurk on several boards on the nest. On the bump I lurk on PgAL and BOTB sometimes.

I clicked others. I have been lurking on the adoption board and a little bit on ttc after 35. I try to stay off 1st tri because they bug the crap out of me.
Re: Clicky Poll: Board Usage
Not very often and usually only if this board is slow, I will go to BOTB, PgAL or whichever one someone has said has some good drama.
I used to post and now mostly lurk on the Toddler Board.
I sometimes post on the Photography board.
Sometimes I lurk elsewhere.
