In summary: I'm addicted to PF!I usually visit four or five times a day. I never officially "log out". Sometimes I stay here for hours at a time. Other times it's more brief.

I put down three because I'm pretty much on the whole time I'm at work but usually wind up going to other sites intermitantly and log off when ever I go to lunch.

I was not sure what to put. I put 5+, but the correct response would be "too much!"

All of them!Ivan Seeking said:
I agree with ranger. I visit PF probably every few hours during the day when I have access to a computer. Usually the first thing I do is click "New Posts," scroll through about 3 pages and read the ones with interesting titles. Then, I check my subscribed threads and the threads I posted to recently.
That process alone can take 30 minutes. I'm a PF-aholic.
Anyone else want to come forward and admit their addiction?- #14

I don`t log on every day but the days i do then its once and don`t log off. If I need a study break then i`ll check GD and have a giggle to myself over some of the weird things people talk about. I`m more a voyer PF`er than an actvie poster. It`s not people watching it`s people reading and yes i`m addicted to it.

I have a PF obsession. When I'm at a friends place and I get on their computer for a bit I always check PF. My friends get irritated with me because they aren't interested in PF at all. What's worse is that since I'm always on here I actually talk to people about the discussions I have on here because it's about the only thing I do on a regular basis.
"So I was talking to someone online about..."
"Uh huh.. yeah anyway..."

I log on whenever I'm at my home or boss' computer, and stay logged on until I'm leaving the building. So actually, it's either 1, 2, or 3 times per day depending upon where I go, but I'm constantly on even when not in the same room with the computer or when I go to other sites. It might well be even more now that my girl has moved into her own place and is setting up her computer.

I'm a PF-aholic.
I'm always logged in...I use the "remember me" check box. I've been running overnight experiments, and they really cut into my PF time since we have no internet access at the farm (otherwise I'd be on all night...instead I've been watching a lot of DVDs to keep myself awake in the wee hours of the mornings). During the daytime, I'm on often...most days never really log out, just minimize the window.
