How much do you post per day? I mean really, not what your total posts divided by day = posts per day thing.. how much do you really? And how do you do it? Tabs? WIndows? One window/tab? Robots?
I think I've done almost 100 since this time yesterday honestly o.o
I remember it being 180 or so about this time yesterday so yeah... and I use the 'new posts' about every 2 minutes depending on if I'm replying or posting. I keep open tabs of important threads and refresh once per minute or so, and then also open a new tab for every new thread I want to see.
How bout you?
I'm really wondering on the use of the forums

I am a firefox user [and in my opinion EVERYONE SHOULD BE] thus I use tabs, as opening multiple windows is very inefficient.
When I post, I usually go into a forum, and open the topics I want to read. THIS DOES NOT MEAN I WILL POST IN THEM ALL. My motto is: If I think what I am going to say is relivent, I will post it. If not, I'm wasting my time. |

I'm really wondering on the use of the forums I always end up doing more reading than posting. Usually I will get halfway through writing one in a hot thread, and just say the heck with it. However, maintenance days are always the heaviest posting days for me. /me waves to Oki |

lol.. I post even if its not gonna be read in all likelihood And btw, IE now uses tabs as well. Posting for no reason is spam, and after running many forums myself (I have been a forumer for about 4-5 years now) I understand why forum owners get so hacked off with people not following the rules, and I empathise through the way I post on their forums. IE sucks, big time. Plus all Microsoft do is steal the ideas which Firefox, Opera and Safari use. The only reason so many people use IE is because they can't be arsed to change. Something you might find funny: http://msfirefox.com "Microsoft Firefox" The images are the best - It completely takes the piss out of Microsoft! |

/me waves back I dont think I'd seen one of your posts before I saw you in world o.o at least.. I dont remember it well enough if I have =/ They are pretty spread out across all the different boards, one here, one there. I'm usually just sitting on the sideline eating some popcorn.  But that's ok, I'm more interesting in world anyway.  |

I didn't say for 'no reason' I said even if it wont get read in all likelihood. Essentially, if its a very active thread between a few people, and I make a quick comment, I'm not expecting a reply to it at all. ahaha.. anything remotely resembling a tit or a boob will be rendered 10 times faster! _____________________

I read the forums all day at work (productive huh?). I use firefox and will load the main RA page and then open the topics I want to read in tabs...sometimes it takes awhile to read them all because I have to stop and do some work, but when I get to the end of the tabs I just go back to the main RA page, reload and start again. I always keep a tab open with my transaction history available, I reload that probably 100 times a day...a little obsessive when it comes to that.
I rarely post, because usually by the time I read the topic, it's already been answered. I need to get in gear and actually go by the hangout and meet some of you sometime so I can feel like it's ok to jump into the friendly banter that comes after the questions are answered. |

Not much at all lately. There just doesn't seem to be much point. That thread over there about RL vs. SL personas... I have thoughts on it, I could share, but why bother? Really, the only thing that will get me posting lately (usually!) is if the conversation is fun. Like the "rescuing" Gorean slaves one from a while back.

Typically, a couple of posts a day, in addition to whatever advertising I happen to be doing that day. I'm forced to use IE at work (where I post, because if I'm home, I'm in-world), but a simple shift click opens a new window, so it's not too bad.

You can use a portable version of Firefox. http://portableapps.com/ ^^ |

I'm really wondering on the use of the forums It says that I post 9.17 posts per day but I have fallen off a lot lately and I have no real idea what my "posts per day" really is now. I think I have posted 2 or three today. This might be my 2nd or 3rd post today. Edited to note that it is now 9.17 posts per day not 9.16. Ok, let's look: Today: 2 Yesterday: 1 1/7/08: 2 1/6/08: 0 1/5/08: 0 1/4/08: 13 1/3/08: 5 1/2/08: 0 1/1/08: 0 And that is it for 2008 _____________________
