How often do you visit theparrotforum?

Postby Michael » Wed May 12, 2010 8:11 am

Typically, how often do you visit the forum? Do you log on more on weekends or weekdays? What's holding you back from coming on more (by the way, if it is your parrots, then forget it. I'd rather you go spend time with them than on forum)? Is there anything that could be altered on the forum side to attract you to come on more often or is it mostly on your end?

I just get really busy at times and don't really go on forums for a while. Then things settle and I have more time to spend online.

It has happened in the past with other forums that I just needed a break - it was either always the same stuff being said or there was fighting or I just lost interest - a break would allow me to distance myself and then I would come back.

If I'm not extremely busy I'm usually on quite few times a day. Although I still haven't caught up on all of the posts from when I was gone most of March and April! I'm usually on during week days (before work, during breaks, after work) and during the weekends and week nights I'll stop here on occassion. Weekends are my main time to be home and spend my time with everybody/everything at home so I'm not on here very much then.

So unless you can make the forum more entertaining for my parrot or you can convince my boss to let me on here 24/7 there's nothing you can do to make me able to be on the forum more often. :lol:

I'm usually on several times a day while at work. I don't take coffee/smoke breaks at work and usually hop online for a few minutes to take a mental break when I have a few minutes to spare.

During the evenings and weekends, I'm on less often. With priorities like family, birds, etc I get on when I can - which is usually once an evening or once a day on weekends.

This is one of the few message boards I visit on a regular basis. I think its a mix of people and topics that keep me coming back. There is usually an interesting thread to read/comment on. Can't really recommend anything to change/improve.

Its always changing for me and it really depends mainly on work (how much I have on). Our conures have laid eggs so I've been busy with setting up and preparing. I selected a few times a week but I'm sure in a few months time that will change to everyday.

I'm new here...and I haven't been on a parrot forum for a couple of years...and I miss talking with other parrot-lovers...

But my internet use in general is dictated but my work scheduale. If I work on-line (which I have been doing a lot the last two years) I tend to check-in quite often (mini-breaks, stress relief)...or, as is the case at the moment, I'm between jobs and at home...I'm on-line a lot - again to socialize while I'm on a break...

However, if I'm off on a holiday...or working away from a computer...I don't really miss it either...
