I usually like to be invisible for just this reason -- I hate having to remember to log out, and then have to log back in... so if I'm invisible I can leave myself logged in 24/7 without people wondering have I lost my mind.

It never logs me out automatically, I wonder why.... Anyway, right now I'm visible because I'm modding werewolf and I figured my players would like to know if I'm online should they have a question or whatever. I'm not sure they actually care, but I decided to go the extra mile if anyone does.

Of course, I have not been remembering to log out every time, but oh well.

Freaks. Weirdos. You're all sick! (Well, some of you.)

If I have nothing else to do then I'll often hang around, drifting among the corpses. But you want an average? Well, I certainly come here every day. Average? Less than an hour.

I know that Hookbill is on at all times. Maybe it just so happens that he's on when I'm on I used to tell myself.

Yeah, right. I'd say he's severely HOOKED.

I feel like an outcast! I don't go on as much as I used to, hence my decline in RPG posts - generally probably about, ooh, 3 hours a week? So about as much as most people apparently go on in a day...

It used to be much more: last year and the year before, my 'glory days', I was probably logging about for about 3-6 hours per day, but then AS-Levels started to feature in the equation, along with multiple commitments; it's been than usual more recently, but I went for a few weeks without the Downs - but yeah, my time probably averages about 2-5 hours per week.

Of course, as I have no really strong excuse such as marriage (if you have a look at the Memorial of Members thread - congratulations to Ithaeliel, much as it is bizarre to be wishing someone of almost my own age that; I'm so glad you've found someone who makes you that happy), you may commence the throwing of projectile objects for such shameful Downs disloyalty

Werewolf sickness. (At least in my case.

) It's highly contagious and a devil to cure.

Aman, speaking of Downs disloyalty, I've been known to be gone for months at a time.

Well, well, well. I'm not usually online every day. (About four days a week or so, it depends.) When I am, it varies from 1½ hour to 5 hours. With werewolfing even more.

During my first two years, I'm here for only 2-3 hours (or so) a week. Every weekends. When I'm temporarily released from *ehem* prison. Come fourth year, though, I managed to sneak in every now and then during Com Sci class. Hahaha. Where's that evil smilie?

After graduating from high school, it's 2-3 hours (or so) everyday. Or at least I try to be here everyday. Saturdays are especially hard since I'm sometimes away the whole day. I occasionally work offline, too - for Green Dragon posts or replies to long PMs.

Parmawen · 04-30-2006, 07:02 PM

Oh, now I feel bad. I'm on probably about 10-25 minutes a day...maybe 40 if I'm posting a lot in the discussion forums. I tend to haunt the Middle Earth mirth section the most...

mormegil · 04-30-2006, 11:14 PM

Well generally on an average day at work it's open all day long but I check things about for 5 minutes every hour. Generally I spend most of my 30 minutes of lunch on it. It depends a lot of what is happening at home as to how long I spend, probably between one to two hours. I use to spend a lot more time at work but since my promotion it's been more difficult.
