Just curious... How often do you spend your time on this board? Day/night? 24 hours?


Well, I usually come around here every day and night, like 12 hours each day, even weekends too!

Weekdays mon-fri.

I unplug on weekends, internet, cell phone, the works.
All you that doth my grave pass by,
As you are now so once was I,
As I am now so you must be,
Prepare for death & follow me.

Good question. How come do you unplug on the weekends? And, how about holidays?

I tell you, some days I would like to unplug the cell, internet etc for weeks at a time. Sometimes it is just nice to be UNavailable. ;-)

I took my kids on a week cruise over New Year's 2007-2008 and it was very nice to be disconnected from it all. Very relaxing. The only problem is that if the server goes down then and the people who watch it can't fix it, it is down until I return. Fortunately that has not happened though!

I always unplug when I go to bed! :lol:


During the daytime, I am around here from 1pm until 6 pm, then again after 10pm till 4am or after that time... Not so many people here late at night, except days only!

I have the luxury in this day & age to not have kids, and my siblings do the same thing, for the most part.

My job isn't internet-based (even though I work in silicon-valley ground zero) and does not require my attention after hours.

I guess I'm blessed in these regards.

For example, if HalloweenCom is away on vacation and I would be very happy to watch over his Halloween board here! ;)

I go on here everyday to see if anyone posted something new. I check a few times a day. If I am bored (wich is everyday) I will just hang out on here and look around at older posts and sometimes reply to them.

I'm on late nights. I'll usually spend 2 to 3 hours a night online, most of which is on these forums.

I've been searching all the old topics lately. There's so much on here! It keeps me busy. I should've joined a long time ago.

I agree with RDM & 'chill; It's like resurrecting the dead when you find a juicy thread that has sat dormant for a long time, and reply to it :)

Yes it is! These forums definitely seem to be alive and kicking during September and October. I'll try and bump some old fun topics that can still be discussed further.

The one about our Halloween town that was recently replied to was an awesome read. That's the kinda stuff I come on here for. It's fun to get into this little imaginary Halloween world :D

I was hoping people would not get mad at me! I was not sure if it was a good idea to bring old threads back from the dead or not. But I just had to reply!
