(Isnt thailand that interesting these days that people feel the need to stay in and indulge in the cyberworld of thaivisa. ) Edited November 30, 2008 by Changkok Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samuibeachcomber Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 being retired my time is my own,i guess if i was working i would n't access it a lot but would still make time in the evening as i enjoying viewing the threads and posts of other people...............just another form of communicating and like most people enjoy taking part.How much time per day?well it varies,probably the most each day would be 2 hours interupted with doing things around the house Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chiangmaibruce Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I visit every day when I am in Thailand (less so at other times). I do it to get local news (Chiang Mai) and to gather info and ideas for a book I am writing. I certainly would not say I visit because I have "nothing better to do". Sure you can waste time discussing nonsense issues if you choose to but there is a lot of valuable information knocking around in here. And Thailand is not exactly an info-rich environment - esp. if you can't read Thai. In Thaivisa you get not only personal experiences and opinions, but also leads to other good sources of info, for e.g. web sites you would be very unlikely to ever locate if you didn't hear about them here.

JetsetBkk Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I was considering writing a program to analyse a member's posting habits. Simply click on the member's "Find previous posts" link, download the results, extract the times and draw a graph. Might be interesting... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wouldn't tell you anything about those that lurk --- only post snide remarks --- and then switch to another screenname though! Many people are online for various reasons for significant amounts of time (work etc) and when things are slow join in with ThaiVisa. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1000baht Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I tend to spend a fair amount of time on the site when i am at work, work is slow at the moment, so i really do have nothing better to do! But when back in phuket, i check it maybe for 10-15 minutes with my cup of coffee. Like said before there is tons of great info in here, and tons of squabbles and rubbish around to.

Sarge Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 indeed, I've noticed some who keeps posting throughout the night (Thai time zone), wonder if they actually get any sleep Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Raesum Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Lately too much but have found it invaluable in providing up to date information. I am generally on TV most days for say 30 minutes but ,like now, when its the wee hours of the morning and I can't sleep TV is where I come. Hey Sarge-maybe others who post during the night may live o/s. I know we have posters in UK and Israel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
londonthai Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I have'nt been a member here for long within 12 days on the forum you have made 99 posts, so 8,5 posts/day I am trying my best it is still 2-3 per day, but more recently Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sassienie Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 (edited) Living in the LOS, it is very difficult to vent ones anger and frustrations out on people. So what better place is there than ThaiVisa for a sad old has been like me, who in real life my view points are irrelevant to everyone, than to expel all my daily tensions by winding up other sad old has been`s on these forums.

G54 Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 I flit in and out and out and in whenever I feel like a nose around, am bored or am looking for information. In any one day I might be here for an hour or two at the most. With the current 'problems' I look in more often for info and to see to who is slagging who off Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

girlx Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I work online so am usually on the internet most of the day... I check 4 sites religiously, whenever I have downtime. This is one of them... I keep trying to break the habit and failing... I probably could have done something productive in all the time I have spent on this site, like write a book or get in shape.

Meg_2003 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Im more of an 'observer' and enjoy reading the threads and don't often post. However I check thaivisa several times per day since I am online most of the time. Don't really know how much time I spend on here though..
