jkerouac Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Many RWG members have admitted to being addicted to watches. After not wanting to pay one or two or three grand for a classy genuine watch, within a suprisingly short time you can spend that much or more on a collection of good quality reps -- and still want to purchase even more. Part of the collecting addiction is the information and friendship shared on this board. When I get to work in the a.m., I check e-mail, and then I check what is going on at RWG. And I also check briefly to see what is happening several times throughout the work day. At home, RWG is my home page, and I check in once more as soon as I get home. If my wife isn't home and nothing else needs to be done, I spend a bit more time on RWG. In all, I estimate that I spend between 1 and 2 hours on RWG every weekday. On weekends I may have a bit more time to play online, but on other weekends I may not get online at all. I get the impression that many of my friends consistently spend even more time... in some cases much more time ..... on RWG. A quick glance at today's top posters can tell who must be spending a lot of time here. And now that we have a game arcade and the whole RWG money game, there seem to be even more reasons to linger here. So the question is, how much time do you spend on (in? at??) RWG? And how does it impact the rest of your life, say work, time with wife/girlfriend, reading books, outdoors, etc? I'm really interested to know how others here balance this online club with the rest of their lives. (OK, it's an absolutely perfect sunny day in Seattle, and I'm going to go back outside now. So until later......)
dadog13 Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 well, i really spend a lot time on RWG... when i come to work at 8 a.m. i check the new posts...i read what i am interested in and reply to those posts where i find interest in replying... during my work hours, i check from time to time RWG...it depends on how much free time i have... every day after gym, around 9 p.m. i come again to the forum and spend 1 hour + reading...and posting... so, it is 3 hours a day on RWG...or even more... my GF is mad about it! she hates all of you, and she doesn't even wear more the watch, cause she hates everything that makes TIC-TAC!
Drizznay Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Well I used to spend hours on end here. Literally I would be browsing the topics while at work for a full 8 hour day! Then the many hours at night after the wife went to bed . . . Lately though I have been spreading my time between here and some other forums for other hobbies/interests I have gotten into. I would say I spend a total of 2-3 hours a day here now and about 5 out of the 7 days of the week. I still love this place, just don't spend as much time as I did when I first discovered the world of reps.
Chronus Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 At the moment, I have no girlfriend. Maybe that's why I keep buying watches

KB Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Log in 6am, log out approx 1am Yes there are time I'm not sitting here behind the moniter, but impossible for me to gauge the hours I actually spend here.............of course it was different when I was working but there you have it Ken
Edge Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 Approx 8 hours a day when I am not at Uni, intermitantly and obv it deoends on what else I am doing during the day somedays on 30mins but mostly on here when I am i the house. GF HATES it lol.
Guest Sql_pl Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 (edited) I believe something between 4-8 hours a day.... Edited May 14, 2006 by Sql_pl
Watchmeister Posted May 14, 2006 Report Posted May 14, 2006 2-3 hours a day. More when I travel. No wife and kids to bother me. I have logged onto RWG from five different continents and at more than 30 airports. And in my case the idea that I spend less because I buy reps is a fallacy.
jimmytim Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 I don't know, lost count, if there is internet near me, I'm on
GhostfaceZX Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 I don't know, lost count, if there is internet near me, I'm on Same here - first it was the arcade, then RWI's arcade, then came the casino!
Estaban Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 Less and less. I'm getting a little bored with reps. Seriously
CY0811 Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 2 hours a day a year and half ago down to 10 minutes a day presently.
thomasng Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 Maybe 30 minutes on weekdays and Saturday, and 2 hours on Sundays.
gpuck Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 My new job keeps me to busy to be on much anymore. I try to check in everyday and see what is going on but I guess only 15-30minutes a day now. Gpuck
dadog13 Posted May 15, 2006 Report Posted May 15, 2006 I believe something between 4-8 hours a day.... @chronus...you have to be as much as sql_pl on the forum and you'll have a gf like he does!
