What forums sections are you most active in?

I say that I'm pretty active in Pokemon Gaming; Fourth Generation to be specific. I can relate to it so much, so I post there the most out of the rest of the sections. I'd probably have more post in there if I never wrote such lengthy replies. I'm trying to branch off into other sections though.
 
I don't know which one I'm technically most active in by number of posts alone (because I can't find that posts by forum link), but the one I'm currently the most active in is definitely Challenges. I don't post a lot but I do keep up with a few specific challenges and stay active in CI&D and the DCC.
 
Forum Games can be enjoyable, and there are some that are actually somewhat productive nowadays, such as the two truths and a lie game, rate the avatar/signature/etc of the person above you, would you rather, this or that, etcetera. But some are just mindless, like ban the user above you (which, ironically is the one I tend to post in the most). So I like posting in Forum Games, although I try not to overdo it in the not productive ones.
 
Well, currently, Forum Games and Pokemon Trading Card Game, with occasional dips into other sections.

Historically, my top is Forum Games by about, oh, 17,000 posts more than the next highest forum, General Chat, which itself is 700 posts higher than Pokemon Trading Card Game (in those three forums I have 21,359, 3,919, and 3,224 posts, respectively).
 
For me, it's TC and it's subforums. I believe my highest post count is in Trade Shops. I joined PC for TC and I'm pretty sure it'll be the only forums I ever really frequent. lol
 
I did become a frequenter to the trade forums early in the year, but I haven't done as much trading and breeding lately, i've been more into challenges for a while. I still try to hang around the IRC chat and the DCC there, though.
 
Daily Chat's my most active by quite some distance, but I also like to post in here, Culture & Media, and the Colour & Metal Generation forum if any threads catch my eye.
 
Most active in ORAS section.

I'm trying to step out of it though. I haven't been venturing around the forums much.
 
In the older days I did quite a lot of posting in Daily Chit Chat, Pokemon DPPT & Trade Corner. Now I just mainly hang out in Daily Chit Chat. I am going to change that soon and try to get in on the discussions for Pokemon X & Y and Pokemon Alpha & Omega plus start building my self up again to get a trade shop running.
 
I'm most active in the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire forum, I really enjoy speculating there.
 
2900 posts in Trade Shops (28.1%)
405 posts in Trade Corner (3.92%)
760 posts in Dppt (7.37%)

About 4000 posts or 40% of my actual activity are in the sections I was interested in posting in when I joined seven years ago.

Another 2500 posts or 25% of my actual activity are in laid back sections of Chit Chat, Staff Hangout, and Forum Games. My other interests are Video Games, Anime, Pokemon Clubs, and X&Y.

I was looking at the link Lilith posted, and my top 5 are:

1003 posts Battling & Team Building 26.53%
780 posts Pokémon X & Pokémon Y 20.63%
437 posts Video Games 11.56%
191 posts Pokémon Trivia 5.05%
171 posts Staff Hangout 4.52%

Apparently I spend more time in BTB than the section I mod.....
 
I apparently looked at the link Lilith used, and here's some of my results but I wanted to do a Top 15 this time:

16984 Forum Games 48.99
3647 The Welcome Lounge 10.52
2602 Pokémon Trivia 7.51
2109 General Chat 6.08
1267 Fifth Generation 3.65
1236 Culture & Media 3.57
1154 Pokémon X & Pokémon Y 3.33
832 Pokémon Clubs 2.40
805 Pokémon Gaming Central 2.32
481 VIP Forum 1.39
433 Celebrations 1.25
417 Pokémon General 1.20
372 Fourth Generation 1.07
349 Community Feedback and Support 1.01
345 Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire 1.00

Kinda interesting how Forum Games topped the list here, but I remember when I was on a huge posting spree in that section around 2012. My activity there now isn't the same level as back then, but my latest specialty, The Welcome Lounge got second place. The same is also probably true for Pokemon Trivia, which is usually a very dead section.

A lot of Pokemon sections follow close behind, with OR/AS rounding out the Top 15. My activity in 5th Gen is actually better than I thought, but it was no surprise given it is my fave generation of all. Maybe when I want to foresee future new staff I should definitely use these as a reference.
 
Guess i'll do a top 10 for mine based on what I have listed:

367 General Chat 16.56
233 Pokémon X & Pokémon Y 10.51
227 Pokémon Gaming Central 10.24
182 Challenges 8.21
151 Fifth Generation 6.81
147 Trade Corner 6.63
116 Forum Games 5.23
106 Culture & Media 4.78 (over half of these are in What are you listening to)
76 VIP Forum 3.43
74 Fourth Generation 3.34

I have like four sections I have 42 posts in at this time (CF&S, 3rd Gen, Pokémon General and Pokémon Polls). Between them is ORAS (58) and Celebrations (53), funny numbers.
