What is alot? What is average? Who is addicted?

How do you gather 5000+ post on a community forums?

Just so others will feel like posting I will save anyone being embarrassed by their time Online. I spend 16 hours plus Online each day. From about 5am to 9pm usually.

What can I say. Its my work, its my play, its my social life. I HAVE A LIFE (its just virtual). The only real problem is that Internet is fattening.

I'm only Online about 3 hours/day. Mostly reading message Boards like this one.

A couple of hours per day on average.

Since I do nothing else all day long, I would say all day long.

maybe 4 or 5 hours every 3 days and then about 30 mins on average a day.

I'd say it varies, since right now I am between jobs and I graduated highschool in June and can't go to college for a while I don't have much else to do but play SEIV and write my story.
Though I also do Kung Fu and did fencing (will probobly get back into fencing sometime) which kills about 3 hours a week.

I'd say when I'm working and healthy I spend about 2-4 hours a day on the computer with about 1-2 hours on the net.
Since I have nothing to do right now I'd say I spend about 7-13 hours on the net daily, but it's mainly writing or reading so I consider it better then watching the boob tube which is totally non-interactive and doesn't stimulate my brain at all anymore.

Brains...

Depends how I'm feeling. Right now, I'm feeling like a zombie, like I stayed awake all night, except I know I fell asleep.

Probably about 4 or so hours a day.

If I could, I would be 24/7 Online. Unfortunately I have to work too. So I think I'm 4 hours a day Online. Way too short... http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/fear.gif

Ummm... like he said. It was worse when I was employed, as if that makes any sense. There's just so much to see.

Way too much for my own good. I would say six hours on average, including related stuff like playing my turns and checking the forums every quarter of an hour; and sadly, it was even worse in the past, back when I played MMORPGs.

Well, between 2-3 hours per day. Im downloading 50% of the time, the rest im looking for my stocks, news, game-Boards and so on. A bit of renderosity.com, too

Some days 2-3; others 10-12 depending on projects and stuff. About 25% of my main job uses the 'net and about 95% of my side work is on the 'net.

Only about 10% of that time is 'surfing'; the rest is work stuff....

As to "What's a lot?" I think you'll find that the average within the Users of this furum probably is much greater than the population at large. (Everyone say "DUH!" ;-)

I am usually on around 8 hours a day. But that is due to it being part of my work. I design our companies websites and do quite a bit of surfing to find new ideas and different coding methods to create the site. About an hour or less per day is spent on just goofing off. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif
