I just tend to leave it on minimised, and when I need a break from whatever I am doing I go have a look see. How long I spend posting depends on the threads and the other posters.

My line, my line! Someone STOLE my LINE!

Ahem.

On school days from around 4pm to 1am-ish. On weekends from around 12pm to 3 or 4am-ish.

So... too long

Well, I was working in a crappy job that was mind-numbingly boring. I'd actually spend as much of the working day as I could on NS... so about 6+ hours during the week.

However my last day in that job was today. Next week I start a brand new job, earning lots of money and I'm sure I'll be expected to work... a lot... so I can see my current participation levels taking a dive.

Which is a bit of a shame really, I was just starting to get to know people. I'll have to make do with ocassional posting at nights and on weekends.

yeah, me too...whenever i am in the lab running images i tend to have odd bits of down time between shots, so i make a post or two while i wait.

of course, there are also times when i am just feeling scrappy and want to come on the forums to find a good fight. :)

now, it would be rare to spend more than an hour a week on it...

I usually post actively while I'm at work so either 2 or 4 hours a weekday. I pretty well leave it up all the time at my apartment, and just come in everyonce and a while to see what topics are running. I would say that I have had NS General up for 72 hours straight before, but I wasn't posting for most of that time.

Until a few days ago, about 4-5 hours a day, or not at all. Once I've logged on I can't seem to tear myself away. Now, however, my laptop's buggered (technical term there), so I have to use the university computers instead - so about 2 hours every other day.

I'm new so, I am here for several hours during the day and evening/night, familiarizing myself with the site. I just stay logged in and cruise around whenever I have the time.

I'm usually only here for an hour or two a day, and not at all on weekends. I guess my participation rate leaves a lot to be desired compared to everyone else's. :(
