So what forum topic (on these forums) do you generally check first?  Or (if you're pressed for time), which one would be the only one you would check, perhaps at the expense of the others (until you could get back to them)?

I find myself hitting "The Citadel" first, then often "House Rules" next, then "Hero Talk".

Other days (when I have lots of time), I start at the top and work my way down (in order), reading up on the most recent posts.  If I've got tons of time, I work down into some of the older posts I missed before.

Most Recent Posts first.
Can't afford to miss a word.

Agreed there.  For whatever reason, I find myself drawn to the Citadel first, usually.  Perhaps it's the shared V&V world that we all have as a common frame of reference (our individual campaigns are often quite unique), or maybe it's how much I love and appreciate the published modules and supplements; I'm really not sure.

Since I am an anal retentive, I start at the welcome and work my way down.

I gravitate toward posts not by the category but by the forumite. Those with a pattern of cohesive comments, who think through their ideas before posting them online, I read those names first. They give more bang for the buck and make this forum worth coming back to!

Those with a pattern of incomplete thoughts and scattershot ideas, I tend to skim over. Life's too short!
