    Default How much time a day do you spend here?

    Something I've been meaning to post for a while now, after realising that I spend more time each day here than I really want to (which means I don't get to spend much time doing anything else, or even get out of the house much).

    It would also give me an idea of something I was also thinking about (which relates to some people getting worked up or depressed over the occasional negative issue here) - how many people here use this fan-forum as their only online community? If you end up spending most or all of your online time here, it would end up affecting you more, emotionally, if anything upsets the balance. This could well be like a 'second home' to some, so changes or disruptions can be something difficult to adapt to or ignore. Like having to share a house with someone you don't like, but you don't have any convenient 'accomodation' alternatives, and you'd miss the neighbours too much...

    So, how much time do you spend here each day (approximate, average, estimate).

    - 6+ hours per day - you read pretty much everything, and this is really your only online interaction with others, and most of your (online/real) friends are here.
    - 3-6 hours per day - you read and post a lot, and probably don't interact much anywhere else while online.
    - 2 hours per day - you keep track of most current stuff in the 'world of Transformers according to Ozformers'.
    - 1 hour per day - you check a lot of the current stuff, and topics here.
    - Less than an hour per day - you still stop by most days, but to check to see if you have any messages, and maybe check a few current topics.
    - 2 to 3 days per week - this place isn't a significant part of your life, so you don't feel a need to check in every day. Only when you think about it or have the time.
    - Once a week - you are still classed as an 'active member', but don't see a need to be keeping track of news and events as they happen. You can find out about stuff later, like on the weekend when you have time.
    - Less than once a week. (probably won't get many votes here, because most of these people aren't here often to see this poll...)

    I voted 2 hours, but it's more like 1.5. Thought I'd round up for you

    I voted for 2 hours, even if im not on it continuously, i always like to check posts from time to time during the course of the day

    Even if I dont have the opportunity to post or reply to anything, im always reading most things that do go up.

    At the moment im tied between the Ozformers Boards and FB as my main online sites. But to my benefit, this one isnt block at work , unlike Facebook

    I probably spend close to 3hrs when I'm in the office at the moment I'm repping for my company (my bro and I swap every month or so) so atm I'm not spending alot of time here.

    This is also the only online community I'm active in, tf or otherwise... unless facebook counts. Also if I was in an area populated by more members I would probably find myself like Paulbot and socialise with you guys alot more.

    I said about an hour a day, but it's probably less than that... maybe. This is 1 of about 3 forums I'm active in, I mostly pop in and out throughout the day.
    Which brings us to where we are today...
