Forum Time vs Game Time

Just a random post I want to make to see how many players find themselves spending more time on the forums than spent in game :confused:

i think no one

but i do spend 8 hours daily on forums except friday

I am a hopeless alt-tabber... so I post a lot.

well i think i do spend more time on the forums now.. working from 07:00 to 17:30... so i leave the forum open and stuff... so yeah...

yeah the forums can be addicting too, Not saying anything bad about the game just that I have both up mostly for fun.

Only when I am at work. Otherwise I only check the front page & the english forum page for news & dev reply and go back ingame with me

At home, I have my laptop(which can barely handle FFXIV on the most minimal settings) with the forums open, and my PS3 is running FFXIV, so yeah...

The forum is my foreplay. I usually warm up for half an hour on this site then finish off playing the game.

I'm on the forums when my girlfriend is around and we'll have some garbage on the tv. So I'll throw the laptop up and depress myself with all the complaining here.

I have 2 monitors.

I surf the forums at work only. I used to do it for hours a day until the 2.1 housing fiasco, SE didnt think my cardboard box picture was very funny so I got a 10 day ban. Thanks SE! You broke my hours a day forum habit. Now I only check it in the morning and once in the afternoon.

This is commen, WoW has this problem

unless.... wait.... are you an undercover SE forum secret spy agent thing?! ... although.... I don't see why they couldn't coexist... in fact, one would sort of come with the other... OH SO CONFUSING ZMGS!

My forum time always suspiciously happens between 9am and 5pm, monday through friday. Hmmmm...

Forums all day, game all night.

Hell of a coincidence, mine too.

Well at work and I leave these open to pass some time but mostly the topics are all complaints and not worth to respond anymore except this one of course :P

Just out of curiosity, do you guys have not much to do (at work), have enough free time to lurk around... or just lazy about? xD

I got plenty to do at work which is why I don't have like 4k worth of posts and most those post were in alpha and beta >.>

Ah... yeah... :P

(?)

I do too, maybe... <_>

I spend more times on the forums simply because I'm on when at work.

I peruse the forums mostly during downtime at work. When I'm at home I'm actually playing.

In the states, 9/10 office jobs are just an illusion. Nah honestly, at my job, we got through periods of easy work weeks and periods of "kill yourself" work weeks. This is one of the easier ones.
