How much time do you spend on TRF?
Not really sure the best way to poll this as I have TRF usually open in the background at work, and spend sometime in the evenings browsing. Not sure what's 'normal' per se to spend on watch forums!

So I'd say overall I'm in the 5+ hours a day category - but I'm not actually 'on' for that long if that makes any sense...

Regardless - please vote as to how much time you spend on TRF daily and feel free to comment on the addiction of it all!!

At least an hour.

I've been a part of a lot of forums over the years, but this is the best I've come across.

I think a lot of it has to do with the mods. I'm a relatively young guy and they all seem older and wiser. People to look up to based on how they conduct themselves and the forum.

Aside from the mods, we have what I consider the forum all stars, they are almost all great as well.

It's the people that make the difference.

Depends on the day. There have been times when I don't check in for several days. Depends on how busy I get with work.

I'm always logged on to TRF but for actual reading and posting I'd estimate about 2 hours per day. Hey, I'm retired.

As a mod, I spend an inordinate amount of time here. I won't say how much, but I did vote.

A mod poll on this would actually be fascinating as you guys maintain the best forum on the net.

When I'm in the office, I'm nearly always logged in to TRF and have it open in the background. I guess around one to two hours a day, in and out, depending how busy I am. If I'm away on a job, then less than an hour a day, maybe just half an hour before bed to wind down. On weekends, not usually more than an hour a day.
