Default How Much Time Do You Spend On PPCT?

Kati helpfully reminded me that this is my 5,000th post here on Pocket PC Thoughts, and suggested that I'd better make it good. So here goes: it's obvious I have no life here if I have time to make 5,000 posts (and Jason has less than no life :lol, but I'm curious as to how much time the rest of you spend on this little home of ours.

(By the way, I'm proud to say that we've got a great community, and I want to thank you all for hanging around here and providing such great sources of discussion!)

So, is it time for me to once again harken back to days long ago when Janak was called Big Daddy J and he had only about 500 posts...

...let's see... that was about 9 months ago... December 2002!! :lol:

For me, it fluctuates quite a bit. Some days I can spend hours clicking New Posts over and over and have several conversations running within different threads.

Other times, I can go days at a time without visiting at all.

I have some days where I have a few minutes free, but don't want to click in because I don't have enough time to read all the New Posts waiting for me. So if I were to hop in for five minutes and read the first couple pages, when I leave my New Posts would be reset and I would miss everything else possibly. So I generally wait until I have enough time to read what's there relative to the length of time I've been away.

That's 500 posts per month since then!

(Which actually equates to only 16.6666666667 posts per day, so that's not as many worn-out keyboards as I thought.)


BTW, I voted Substantial chunk of the day, meaning more than an hour but less than three (on heavy day).

Hrm. I should have put an option for that. Oh well, you fall in any of the above categories then. :lol:

Yeah, I know what you mean. It would be nice to have per-user tracking, instead of per-session tracking, but that's not officially supported in phpBB. :cry: Maybe the next version will handle that...

Although everyone here is very important to me :roll: , I do have a real job, a family, and other things to do. Perhaps if I quite my job, left my family I would have enough time to become one of the Thoughts fanatics :wink:

What do you mean "become"? You already broke the magical 1K posts.
