What kind of member are you?

[Cap'n Refsmmat]

Are you:

 

A) A member who lurks on the forums all the time, just waiting for a post to happen.

B) Someone who pops in and quickly checks for new posts, then leaves.

C) Someone who only comes on if they have to ask a question.

D) Someone that comes rarely and stays a while to read all the posts.

 

I used to be an A, but now I'm a B.

[fafalone]

Unfortunately I've been type B as of late :/

 

I don't even read new posts, I just check the post count for the day, make sure theres nothing weird going on, and leave the computer. Probably going to be like this till early Septemeber.

I'm a combonation of A and B. If I respond in a thread to someone and see that they're still on line, I might hange around for a while to wait for them to reply. If I haven't posted anything lately for people to respond to, I'll just check mostly general discussion, general science, all the math ones, the politics and the religion. I leave the others alone. I guess for the most part I am a B.

[Phi for All]

I'm Type E. I start a thread when I have a question, I post when I have an opinion or an answer, I read old threads when I have the time and I respond when I get email notification. All of you are a great resource for perspectives I'm rarely exposed to in my personal and professional life.

 

You are mentally and spiritually refreshing!

[Sayonara]

Added "other" for you unclassifiable freaks.

[Phi for All]

I love "others"!

 

 

 

 

 

Sayo, you're no longer a ghost in the machine, what gives?

[Dave]

A bit of A and D. B recently because of exams.

[Tesseract]

Definatly A, I respond to any new posts...

[Cap'n Refsmmat]

I notice Sayonara³ stays on for great lengths of time, though he might be doing other stuff at the same time.

[Sayonara]

I usually have SFN open all day and all evening.

 

Often the "who's online" page will be refreshing in the background so I can see what is going on while I work.

[jordan]

You can make it automaticly refresh? How?

[Sayonara]

The "who's online" page refreshes itself.

 

If you have Opera, or Firefox with the "refresh every..." extension, you can make any page auto-refresh.

[Cap'n Refsmmat]

Wait a minute...

Just a while ago you had 5,666 posts but now you have 5,662! And I thought spam was kept in a hidden forum...

[Sayonara]

Hmmmmm. Nothing suspicious in the admin logs, and there are only two people who could delete log entries.

 

Careful lads, there's treachery afoot.

 

/loads musket.

[Crash]

Id say im a mixture of b and D depending on what sort of mood or time limits i got, like now thanks to my suspension im a D.......

[Phi for All]

^{Sayo is usually in invisible mode, but briefly yesterday evening he showed up as online. I just wondered if his stealth suit was at the cleaners or something.}

 

^{Since trueLove hasn't made a reappearance, I noticed Sayo went back to Doomy Doom as a user title instead of To Protect and Sever. I feel like I've lost my Big Brother.}

"A little from column A and a little from column B."

[admiral_ju00]

I'm the A type. Although one thing that is kind of bugging me is that (so far) 90% of the threads(there weren't many to begin with) that I start, these threads simply die off - no response and are generally completely ignored.

I'll ressurect one of yours that didn't get much ink if you'll go back and ammend your post on my thread "Better Roads or More Jobs" in the politics forum.

 

I had no posts on it for 2 weeks, with about 25 viewings. I PM'd fafalone to change the title but he never did. Then I got a post from Tesseract, and you and Sayonara commented on his use of smilies but not to my thread. The viewings went up to like 80 but I still got only one opinion posted.

 

I'm still not sure if I just put it badly or simply left no room for discussion.

[admiral_ju00]

Actually, I was and to a degree, still am of an opinion that between your post and Tesseract's, there wasn't that much room for debate.

[YT2095]

D lately, but A when I have time, but mostly Other, with a bit of B and C the rest of the time

I'm guessing it's because this thread you posted on the same general topic captured the discussion.

[Sayonara]

There's always another troll around the corner.

[aommaster]

Well, I'm kind of between A and B. I only come to check new posts (which is almost all of the time!). I don't really stay and lurk around except when there is an active conversation between me and someone else on a thread. Then, I wait till the other user posts! Otehrwise, I'm B, but I have gone for A as it is the type that best fits me!

Just about the same here. I lurk when Ive not busy; I come in and out when I am; I start threads when I have questions (as you can see ), but Im not really a D, I show up pretty often around here.
