My strategy is similar to Wave's. When viewing the Board Index, there's a button that says "Mark Forums Read" that comes under the Upcoming Ops page. This will turn every forum post into a 'read' post. Then you can swing by the forums and topics that have conversations going on in them will be marked in Yellow, everything else in Gray.
Combine this with Wave's tactic and the forums become a lot more manageable. It's best to do this after you've sifted through and decided which forum topics you're most interested in, though, of course. Or you can just post in them so they show up for us 'yellow lurkers'. =)
