    Yes I would go along with that too. I come on mainly to see if Pighead is talking dirty.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 5,103 ✭✭✭estebancambias


    It depends on what is being discussed. Sometimes I could be on all day, but when I see topics like wierdest place you have wanked, I get bored and just go on youtube telling people how mornic and dumb they are. ''Cho was a legend' 'Natural Selection' and crap along these lines.

    You are not your join date, post count etc.

    It's all about quality, not quantity.
    See my post count for an example of the opposite.

    You mean there's somewhere outside of boards.

    When I first went overseas, I got lonesome and spent way too much time on boards. Been tapering off a bit lately cause of uni, work, and party life here. Then again, I get in moods to yak, like today!

    Boards to me is not not the 'real' world, unlike for example youtube or myspace, where I don't know much people. I feel that I could and can pay for what I say, and I actually have to decide on whether some topics are appropriate or not.

    yeh sumwhere out there i believe there is.. (was at a wedding afters there was like wedding crashers didn't know anyone at all)

    You should have just made something up. Pretend to be a pirate or something.

    Its like an addiction. I can't stop logging onto boards. Where else can you read ridiculous threads about timothy mcveigh.

    Apparently so, I've seen the button but every time I click it my computer just laughs at me and says 'You're not going any where'. I can't even close the browser any more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 33,259 ✭✭✭✭~Rebel~


    far far far too much of the time. its kind of running all the time as im working on a project from home for the next month, so even if i take a few hours off during the day and head into the sunshine, im still technically on. Or when im working, the soccer forum is always open in the background getting a "refresh" every 20 or 30mins. Id love to know how much productivity is lost directly because of Boards! Probably millions of euro's worth!

    long enough to satisfy my needs


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,686 ✭✭✭EdgarAllenPoo


    About an hour. More if I'm really bored and can't think of anything else to do.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,196 ✭✭✭Crumble Froo

    dont be silly, that's just propaganda put out by those nasty government types.

    hmmph, online relationship, i spend a shocking amount of time online full stop, but spending increasing amounts of time on boards these past months. i used to browse once every other month or so... now look at me... *shame*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,367 ✭✭✭Agamemnon


    Must be about 2-3 hours by now. When I'm at work, there's always at least one Firefox tab open on boards so I'm never far away.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,305 ✭✭✭jobonar


    too long :D but its what gets me thru the working week

    I lol'ed.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,764 ✭✭✭shay_562


    A little under an hour on average, I'd say. Most days I just pop in for 20 minutes to check the TCD one, but other days (like tonight) when I'm bored or can't sleep I'll spend hours just wandering around finding stuff to divert my attention.
