How many times a day do you check into the forum??

OK you guys---fess up time is here. I just realized that I check into this Speedster Owner's site WAY too many times each day! When we were in France with no internet access I was frantic to know what's going on here. Now we're back home and I can satisfy my curosity as often as I think about it.

So here's the deal---how many times a day on average do you get on the site and read what's been posted since the last time you checked in?

I'm embarassed to tell you my number but I may after seeing a few other brave souls tell their number of mis-spent check-in's each day.

So what's YOUR number? Be honest too, dammit! ---Jack

I'm on the 'puter often each day anyway so I would say 7-15 times daily.

I'm also on all day 5 days a week probably check at least 5 times a day for new comments

I'm sure my number is 6-10 times a day.

Hello. My name is Lane and I'm a SOCaholic.

too much.... 15-20 times a day.....I get the shakes when I can't see the warm Speedsters that are still on the road while FERN sleeps in the garage. Where ever I am in the world, it's email, Speedster Owners....

Probably twice a day on weekdays and 4 or 5 times aday on the weekends for me.

what would we do without it?

Some FORUMs have a feature where you can subscribe to a particular thread - and if someone post to it you get email with link.

Probably at least 10 times per day. It is reassuring to see others check often too.

4-5 times a day. More if I am working the stock market, which has been extremely volatile of late. I have had to spend much time constantly monitoring the market, so about every hour , I check out SOC for a break.

It's practically my screensaver. I don't really have a job so I'm on here all the time. My employees think I work tirelessly because I'm always on the copmuter. I have 5-6 sites I check religiously a few times a day. Now that I have my Iphone I can check from anywhere!!! It's awesome!


Dear God, I need a life, or a real job at the very least.

Goof for you, Mickey. The first step is to admit you have a problem. Now repeat after me, "Hello. My name is Mickey, and I'm a SOCaholic."

3 to 6 times daily......SOC junkie.......

Once or twice a day. More if I have asked a question or participating in a discussion. You guys are my computer friends. I have faces for some of you, but others are faces in my mind.

I'm on the computer all day, I must check in about 8 times a day at least....Yes, I al also an SOC junkie...

Hey Mickey, where can I find a copmuter? Sounds very useful...;)
I check in more than I should. I don't necessarily read all the posts but I like to see what's going on with most of you.
I have a few sites/forums I like to check in on.
I'm always looking for new wheels...
None of that Facebook crap, however.

I just KNEW that there were others as sick as I am! Many even whackier. My number is 4-5 times and now I can "Up" the check-ins
without guilt since I know there are many worse than I am!

I wonder who holds the record?---let's hear from the rest of you!!

You know you cant be helped until you admit your problem---right?

mY NaMe Is MaRk AnD I'M a SOC adDicT.

3-10 a day

As a newbie I started out maybe 1 or 2 times a day and hardly ever on the weekends. Now 6 months later, I am up to 3 to 4 times a day including the weekends. I am slowly slipping into SOCaholism. BTW, I replaced a headlight this weekend and now understand the little springy clip things.

Resistance is futile!

I won't say how many times I check but I have looked in on this thread at least 4 times in the last 24 hrs.

Dave SOC addict

Sad..Looks like I hold the current status at 7- 15 times a day.

Alan, at my peak I had you beat. But I think Lane has us all. He seems to be ever-present. I thought I kicked the habit . . . but now find myself hearing the call again sometimes 3, 5, even 15 times a day.

It will get worse when I get another car in play. Until then I can only dream through the site. That's what its for - isn't it?

How many times have you sighed a deep sigh or even cursed aloud to see only 3 or 4 new posts since the last time you checked . . . or worse . . . none at all.

I have some slow/tedious/stressful days at work where I take a short break every hour or so. I have multiple monitors so I can multiplex when I'm waiting for processes to complete, etc. Five minutes of SOC energizes me for the joys of technical documents. On such days I know I'm in the 10-15 (or more) range.

Hello, my name is Robert, and I am a SOC addict too. 4-6 times a day.

Very cost-effective entertainment.

I also have myspace and facebook accounts, but not nearly as much fun.

HI ROBERT

Hi Robert.

What? Doesn't everyone have a copmuter?

ONCE OR TWICE A MONTH

I thought I was bad at 2-3 times a day. You guys have a fiberglass addition and H2O phobia.

No speedster for me but I check the site EVERY day at least 3-4 times. I do not post much but I check often.

C'mon, Lambros, we gotta fix that "I don't have a Speedster" thing.

Gerd, we're not talking about sex here.
It's HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU CHECK IN ON THIS SITE!

Holy Crap! Now I can see why some of these brand new threads have dozens of entries before I ever see them. Being retired, I'm only here once a day MAX. During the winter I probably average two accesses every three days.

I spend six months every summer in a three room cabin on a lake - No TV, no landline telephone (cell phone is spotty), no Newspaper, about three radio stations to choose from (one solely is a weather station) and no garbage collection. To access you guys I drive to the local library and hope one of 6 computers is available for use. So summer access is like once a week or less.

TERRY
OH, EVERY OTHER SATURDAY NIGHT UNLESS I HAVE A HEADACHE

Lane

It is a promise....one day I will have an other one.

Hi, my name is Kelly -- and I am also a SOCaholic. Use the computer a lot at work, so drop in 4-5 times a day during the week; tends to be less often on the week end as I try to leave all that computer BS behind and do other stuff. But, as Lane says, resistance is futile. Currently I am in Cocoa Baech FL, where it is good Speedster cruisin' weather and I wish I had mine. "Dropping in" via lap-top wi-fi.

Speaking of traveling, I was in Santa Barbara, CA the other week and while touring the environs and sitting at the sidewalk cafes there after the work time, I noticed one or another sort of Porsche on the streets about every three minutes. Never seen so many out and about. No Speedsters sighted, however.

It's 3:39 AM and I'm checking it now . . . what does that tell you?
