time to come out of the closets!

how many of you actually spend more than 4 hours a day on the freewebspace.net forums?

I know some of you HAVE to... (not saying names)

4 hours? Not in a continuous block but yes I do. It is most likely to come down to 30 minutes once my holidays end.

I am usually here at least 4 hours a day also. Of course not in a continuous block of time though because I would go insane.

I usually spend about 2 hours... I'd be here a lot more, if I was interested in the threads... I come in, check out the forums.. post a few messages, leave.. come back later, check for new messages..

I watch the USENET groups a bit more often... too bad the alt.freewebhosting group is pretty dead. almost everybody gets referred here, though. hehe

I also subscribe to alt.webmaster , comp.graphics.apps.paint-shop-pro , rec.photo.digital , alt.irc.mirc , and rec.photo.misc

the first three are pretty busy.

The email notifications make me come back to the forums often.

yeah.. I love the email....

of course... I had already seen the messages, before I got the emails, because I was still on the board. hehe

The email notification just cluttered my inbox with hundreds of useless mails so I just turned it off.

Nowadays, it's around 2 hours added together. I think it used to be around 3-4 hours.

I delete the mails as soon as read it. I have this program which checks email every five minutes so I know as soon as someone has posted.

actually, I'm just using Outlook Express 6.. I have it set to check my email every 10 minutes. I just bounce around between all my open windows. last night, I was watching the forums, and reading my USENET groups. :)
