Since I became an 'active' member of DetroitYes! forums, I've been glued in front of my computer for hours a day, waisting so much time, instead of studying some more, working out or reading.
I wanted to know, on average, how much time you guys spend on this forum.
For example, here I am in class, posting and reading off the forum instead of paying a little more attention to my tedious professor.
Lately, it's been a little more than 3 hours a day (an hour in the morning, 1 at noon, and sometime a little more than one before I go to bed) |

Unfortunately, I have a job where I work long hours, so I've only been able to view the site from time to time. If I had more time, I could imagine spending 30 minutes to an hour every day looking through the forum. |

Too much. Depends on how active the forums are. I have a computer job for which my activity waxes and wanes, so I often have time to kill. |

I check for new posts about 3-4 times per day. Unless I find something that interests me I normally won't spend more than 10-15 minutes on here per day. Then again I frequent 3 other forums and between the 4 I'd have to guess I spend a good hour of each day browsing forums. |

Sometimes up to an hour or more a day and sometimes no time at all for days at a time. |

Probably three times a day, twenty minutes or so a shot. Hey, I'm retired, I got all the time in the world. And I greatly enjoy all the comments and chat on DetroitYes. All of you contribute to my daily pleasure and memories. Thanks, all. |

Somewhere between 30 minutes and an hour each day. I check in for a few minutes early in the morning before I leave the house. Then, while I'm at work, I check in throughout the day for 2-3 minutes at a time whenever I need a mental break from the work I'm doing; that may add up to 30 minutes across the workday, including lunchtime. Then again in the evening, I may spend 15-30 minutes solid. |

When I first discovered the site, I was on here a ton of hours, looking at the photos and catching up on all the hall of fame threads. Now I am up to "speed" I'm trying to spend about an hour a day here. Wish me luck! It's an interesting forum! |

I review this site daily, its part of my ritual.
Somedays if its alive with wonderful threads I will spend 1 hour, usually I am on it for 15-30 minutes. |

jjaba has his favorites. If your name appears, he knows you have something to say, and then reads that thread.
30-60 minutes a day, if jjaba's not on the road somewhere or getting a good night's sleep.
Like Ray1936, jjaba has retired from the heavy lifting.

Since I work on 2nd shift, I can be on from 10 minutes to 3.5 hours, 12:30 to 4:00 am. ( I tend to get sidetracked in the hyperlinks.) Some days, not at all 3 to 4 days at a time. |
