So here I am this fine, rainy Sunday after noon. It is 3:15ish and I have been browsing this board since oh.....around 10 this morning. Fortunately or unfortunately I think I spend anywhere from 3 to 6 hours on here nearly every day with you guys.

I mean I love you all, but seriously I think i have a problem.

How much time do you guys all think you honestly spend on here each week / day?

I bet I spend about two hours a day reading posts. Today was a lot more as someone is trying to break the senior member in a day record. :rolleyes:

Yeah, so you got a problem, We all got problems.. I bought a 4 ton floor jack yesterday at Sears because it was on sale and periodically I'd like to remove my wheels and clean the calipers and the inside of the rims.... I have a 1 bedroom condo with NO storage, so I'm going to use it in my living room as an adjustable drink coaster....You seem pretty normal to me..Ha Ha!!!

I spend most of my time here and the other site, but I also belong to various LX platform forums too. I always come here, but if I really dig in everywhere a lot of time goes by.

When I'm online, I hop around between half a dozen car and boating sites, looking for new posts. As far as total time, it's prolly quite a bit, but not sure how much.

I don't have to face up to any problem since my wife doesn't give me any grief about this car and boat obsession. She thinks I'm surfing porn. :p

I can't say how much time I have spent in a week, because I've only been here 2 days now. I will say I have had a laptop in my lap since yesterday afternoon. I'm Trying to learn all I can about the new JGC SRT8, and that is going to take some time. I'm sure it will slack up some once I have learn a good bit of info. I would say I have been on for at least 15-16 hours in the past 2 days!! Good stuff here:)

Much Respect,

An hour a day on the forum will make you smarter than the service techs and service advisors at Chrysler! This is time well spent!

I check this site periodically for updates. During the week I'll check this site in the morning, during lunch, and about 2-3 times in the evening. I ususally browse anywhere from 10 minutes up to about 30 minutes per session. Sometimes longer if I am searching for something.

On the weekend, soemtimes I leave my web browser on this site as well as others that I frequent throughout the day.

no problem as far as I can tell :)

I was asking myself that question awhile ago. Before I bought my Jeep and for the first few months after, I was minimum 2-3 hours a day on here. Now I have cut down as I don't feel I need to read every post.

So now, hour a day, depending on the subject lines on the new posts.

I have never thought of it as a waste of time though.

Well its 6:21am and I'm on here so.... maybe I have the sickness also...lol. I spend at least 2 hours daily (minimum). I'm at 3.49 posts a day but I also do a lot of reading and searching on here for past threads whenever I have a question about my Jeep.
I'm dreading my drive to work today cause it will be the first time the jeep gets wet (rained all Sunday night) and now my under carriage will get dirty....so yes I'm a sick bastard when it comes to this black beast.

I have never thought about doing the math, but I joined sometime mid November, so with about 160 days or so, and 770ish posts I guess I am pushing about 4.8 posts per day. Hmmmm.

I think I am slipping lately since I picked up my new bike, as I am spending a bunch of time on Kawiforums lately. Guess I need to get my priorities back in order and catch up to Mango and Zoo's post counts.

I'll browse any thread that interests me and post here and there. On average, I'd say I spend 1-1.5 hours here per day.

Sadly I spend 12 hours a day / 7 days a week on this forum and the OC. I am currently working in Iraq and at a computer 99% of the day.

I am a sucker for facebook too..I keep two windows open at all time: this site, and FB.

anyone else on Facebook feel free to add me: Maxx Krueger at the University of Kansas. You can see my ridiculous college life one photo at a time :cool:

I even post stuff on there that come up on here...

I somehow became perma-banned from Facebook. I messed up my login information too many times and it banned my college account. I need to get back on there, had TONS of paintball buddies on it. :(

I have only been on now for a few weeks. I work behind a desk with internet...so get on around 6:30am, and get off at 4:30pm when I get off work, and then spend another hour or two from my home! It took me like a week and a half to become a senior member...I'm proud of myself, and now I know everything about GC SRT8's since I am a senior member...and because I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last nite!

Yeah this place will pretty much consume your time if you're bored, I love it though. Makes the whole "ownership experience" that much better. The people on here know more about our trucks than any dealer, it's such a great place to learn.

Matt McKenzie

And learning I have been doing Mango. I have enjoyed every minute of it...except for a couple of days ago when I owed my Major some paperwork, and I was so engrossed in the forums I didn't notice him looking over my shoulder and wondering why the hell I wasn't working on his stuff!!!!

Work was busy when i signed on 4 months ago and has slowed down a little, should pick up after x-mas. So i usually long on mid morning till i leave at 5:30. So i would say a good 6-7 hours a day during the week. Also is fun to teach the salesman what they are selling. Might be a good side job if they keep my number handy anytime a gc srt8 customer comes in. In this case the customer might learn something (which is why a customer usually comes to the dealership for). My days would go by a million times shower with out this site. Thanks everyone

I am good for a few hours a day during the week, and less on the weekend. I also belong to many other car forums, so yes I would say I have a problem. I am without a doubt addicted to the internet.

I have gotta say that this forum is the best I have ever belonged to. A ton of passion not found on many forums. I love my SRT8, and this site. :D
