I almost always have an MR tab open, but then again... I generally have at least 10 tabs open at any given time...
I'm not obsessed, but certainly visit more than 4 times a day.

Oh, and if you have 'New Posts' as a keyboard shortcut, you're obsessed. ;)

Nuts. I guess I'm obsessed then. :eek:

When I'm at work, I have a MR window open all day (which only counts as one visit, right?), and I'll flip over every so often to hit new posts.

When I'm at home, I visit less often - maybe once or twice a day.

It definitely depends on my day but I spend about 15 minutes in a few sittings but that's a lot less than when I was a moderator.

I've noticed that I'll catch up with some threads weeks later these days. I just don't notice things as much.

I'm slightly obsessed, though I think I've spent a little less time here over the past few weeks. I even went 5 days without when I went away to the snow last week.

A lot more in the summer when I have some free time. But even the rest of the year, at least once every day or two. I'm always checking the new posts to get useful advice, even if it's advice I didn't know I needed at the time.

I have days where I spend the majority of the day switching back between here and work, and then days I don't post at all. Today is looking like a cross of the two.

Used to be on the obsessed edge. But since I'm working not so much now. Still at least daily if not two or three times daily.:cool:

Same here. Back to work on Monday, which means when I click New Posts, I'll get 20 pages of threads instead of 2 pages of threads. ;)

Do I really need to say anything? :eek: :cool:

Yeah, I'm on here several times throughout the day. It's a great break from work, and a nice way to chill during the evenings if I'm on my computer doing other stuff at the time.

And plus, it's such a great community, why wouldn't people want to spend lots of time here? :D

I used to come every day, but have been dealing with morning sickness/working full-time while dealing with morning sickness/sheer laziness for the last couple of months so my visits here have been less frequent. The hubby, however, comes here enough still for the both of us. :)

A geographical oddity
Since work at work comes in occasional waves, right now I spend about 6 work hours actively on MR per day (and maybe another 30 min at home). But, I have been busy at orbizgames.com and candystand.com...

Eh, several times a day, but I never stay long. Usually I'll check in to see if there are any new headlines, then I go back to work :)

I come on once or twice a day, mainly Community Discussion. Probably around 2-5 posts a day but I'm sure that will get down to around once a week once school starts back up. :(

If I have nothing to do, I'm usually browsing this forum, but if I'm busy (which is rare) I still check whenever I reach the computer.
