How much do you post here a day?

Postby Female_alien » Monday 15 March 2004 8:55:44pm

I've asked this once in Questions and answers game and I'm really interested what all of you are going to answer. I see here eally some brilliant posters, so I'm also wondering where do you find the time??

So, how many hours do you spend posting and reading posts on this forum in a day, a week. Are you here every day?

Whn I'm here, I'm posting for a hour, maybe a hour and half. Some days I don't even come here because I have no time. But on Sundays I'm here 2 hours atleast.

How about you?

I joined march 4th and this post will make 150 posts for me.
I can only figure that that is an average of 15 posts a day.
People on this forum seem to know how many posts a day they are doing but I've no idea how they get that statistical information.

I personally spend lots of time per day on this site. I visit every day usually several times a day. I sometimes only visit for a few minutes to check threads I am following or I could spend a couple hours at a time here.

I guess it depends on the person and how you are set up. I am a mom who has a 6 yrs old in 1st grade so she is gone until 3:30 pm every day and my 3 yr old goes to preschool until noon so I spend most of the morning here. In the afternoon I have the computer on and I will check the threads through out the afternoon if I am following a subject, but that is usually only for a few minutes here and there.

I work evenings as a mobile X-Ray tech and I have to go on-line to get my reports to call to the nursing homes I have visited and sometimes the doctors take quite a long time to read the films I have sent up so I will kill time waiting for those on the forum.

I am glad I am so addicted to this site because I have to stay awake all night on the 31st because I am having a medical exam the next day that requires me to be sleep deprived. I will spend a full 8 - 9 hours on the forum that night.

OK that was a very wordy answer but I have a tendancy to do that :oops:
I hope you enjoy this forum as much as I do and I will surly see you around.

i too spend quite a lot of time here...

When i started i was only here to discuss Harry Potter, but the reason i keep coming back is that everyone is so nice and friendly! :-)

Btw you can see your average number of posts per day in your profile, i think mine is around 5...i'm more a reader than a poster, although i posted here more than in all the other forums i regurlay visit(ed) put together :grin:

It's really easy! All you have to do is view someone's profile!
Mine for example! :) Or yours!

In the list on the right you can see something like this:
Total posts: 153
[0.24% of total / 13.91 posts per day]


I used to post a lot more here by the way.. but I don't have as much time as I used to have, sadly :(!

I usually come online at some point and the first time i check in a day ill spend at least an hour....takes longer if we have a lot of new members

and then i check back regularly for the rest of the day if i aint busy.....

not sure how much I post per day, it depends on the new members really...i mean i have an average of somewhere like 5 if you check the member list but thats boosted by the crazy hufflepuff days long ago when i could get around 18-20 posts per day if i wanted to at least. I used to post alot more when I was theories mod too.

I post 3 or 4 posts for a day, but I'm here every day :D . I don't post a lot because I'm not very good in english, so I translate all my message, but I really like to be here :grin:

I post less than I used to, because when I joined it was only my third forum, but now I moderate or post in several more, and I have also discovered the joys of neopets :D
I would guess I spend about one hour here a day, more at weekends.

Neopets are cute cyber pets made by the evil enterprise to get people hooked onto them, waste time on them, spend money on them (since time=money)...you can find those evil pets at http://www.neopets.com :evil:

Neofriends are 'friends' you can add onto the list in Neopet so you can share items with them...

And those evil enterprise are real evil...to get me hook up like that... :lol: :lol: :lol:

Ok back to the qns,
erm...I post at least one post a day when I am online that is :razz:

I've only got 3.96 posts per day.... :(

Sometimes i"m too tired to even go online at the end of the day, or else my sister (who i live with) is hogging the computer (its hers anyway!).

I work 5 days a week, and usually don't get home before 6pm. So even though i may spend a couple of hours online, i'm usually pretty tired and mainly just read, because my brain won't process my thoughts properly at the end of the day enough to form proper sentences and paragraphs. i think it comes from being around my team leader, Dead Fish Eyes, and his helper, Bald Eagle, all day.

But weekends are good, unless i'm doing family stuff. Cos then i'm refreshed and happy :D. I'm trying to post more, because i really love this forum and i want to contribute so i really am a part of it. Sorry that i'm not as prolific a poster as i could be!
