hours spent
Submitted by Faulkner Family on Wed, 2009-10-21 22:25
just curious as to how many hours people would spend on here, not just logged on but physically going through the posts in an average week. I spend a fair bit of time on here and worked out during the week it would be close to 1.5 hours each day sometimes a bit more and weekends when well that depends on weather we go fishing or just work it could be around 6 or 7 hours over the whole weekend. At least the laptop gets used

Too scary to contemplate
lets just agree to say "lots".
Like Brad I leave it open and continue to work then check back every now and then. I guess Adam, Tim, Colin and Myself have a duty to be on the ball, which I think is what helps to keep the site relatively clean and fishing focussed. One of us is generally online keeping an eye out, but gone arethe days when Adam and I could read every single post as moderators, even with 4 of us now it is near on impossible to read them all.
The reeltime mag however would burn about 4 or more hours a day for several weeks to put together each Issue.
Dealing with advertisers issues, members issues and site issues also add up significantly.
The site is a big part of my life these days, as it is for many others. I may not post as much as I used to but I am often lurking in the background.
But i'm not complaining, I enjoy every minute of it.

Too Long
This is one of 3 fishing sites I troll each day. All up probably 20 - 25 hours per week with the majority of hours on this site.

between two fishing
between two fishing web-sites, I spend easily 2 hours a day, that ignoring searching for new tackle, places to fish and toys I can't afford ... ( my wife call's it my cyber mistress!!)
