How much time do you send on this forum per day ?

How much time do you send on this forum per day ?

I work from 9-5 GMT and spend perhaps 1-2 per day on average on these forums (Im not skiving, honest, its research).
Don't spend any time on them after work hours though.

I'm new (as of today) to these new forums (I was a bit of a regular to the older board), but since I've signed up I've already spent like 2 and a half hours just browsing around, getting to know the atmosphere.

daaaaaayyyym im a forum addict too, surprisingly, since i usually hate people..

i usually come on after school since i get out kinda early, and my weekends start late (like 10pmish).. or i come on when im drunk and try to write code, im also addicted to the SRO(streetracing.org) forums, but they suck now

vbforums rock, the rest i wont even bother to post on

concidering I run a few forums myself (all PHPBB2, I developped a hardcore gamers' clan template around PHPBB2 to drive the whole sites... whatever) but my wife is often away overseas and I am insomniac so


...I quit smoking on sunday and since I was a heavy cigar smoker I had to find something to do when thinking about my algorythmes... so I post

... a bit off topic

I can't stand it anymore!!! I must know -> @bunkermaster
I think i figured out the RTFM... but what does UTSL stand for...
my first intuition was Use The Standard Language....but for me that meant that i had to stop and think wtf i am not on a c/c++ forum instead

That depends..

I have a tabbed broswer (love it) and I open the forum and let it sit there. I take a break from coding or administration and I browse over the forums and help when I can, or learn something new from someone elses question or answer to a question.

How much time I do it is completely dependent on how much time I have to do it.

Well, this is probably the most active forum ive came across. It beats them ones you see that have one post every 2 weeks or so. Anyway it good to have somewhere to ask or answer questions in almost real time.
Anyone know any other PHPish type forums that are as active as this ??

http://www.yapf.net would be my choice - not as active but you tend to get very good advice (generally within 24hrs).
