Title: How often are you on the Arena?
Post by: Safflower on March 07, 2018, 06:48:42 PM
I thought this would be a fun poll :biggrin:

So... how often do you visit here? Is it every day or not quite as often? Why do you visit that much? Would you like to change how much you visit?

As for me, I view the Arena 3 or more times a day. I'm on here a lot!

What about you? :biggrin:

I'm always in front of my computer so I'm on pretty frequently. I think I've got a bit of an addiction to making forum posts because I love to see the number under my profile pic get bigger, and bigger, and bigger! I also like it as an outlet to talk about my ponies and have people listen/read what I say, as I don't have that many people on tumblr who interact.
I don't have any problem with being on so often, it's just because I'm in front of a screen anyway!

Every day, multiple times a day, I've got a handful of sites I check several times daily and this is one of them!

It varies for me. Sometimes I just get too busy and don't have the time to even browse the Arena, although I make an effort to pop in at least once a day.

Really, really varies. Every few months I go on a pony crazy spree and am on here like all the time (as is the case now). But other than that it is very infrequent, like maybe once a month...? 

Neat poll idea though!

I am on here everyday! I have taken a few breaks that can last a few months. But then here I am again and in full force again. :)  I love looking at all the art on here and all the beautiful ponies! :)  Don't think I will ever leave this site! <3

Every day. I have a morning routine where: mlparena -> local newspaper -> facebook -> if I have time other newspapers and forums. I do the same during lunch. If I am in the mood I might do the same in the evening, but it's rare. But yeah, mlparena is priority :blush:.

I check in once a day to catch up on all the pony news, ogle the pretty pictures etc. But I don't post that much because I'm shy  :blush:
Title: Re: How often are you on the Arena?
Post by: Miniature Sheep on March 08, 2018, 02:15:34 AM
Usually on a daily basis, as I set aside a bit of time each day to catch up with internet stuff. I don't like bothering with the internet too much though, so I just have three or four websites I actually bother with. :P

I come here daily and post whenever I feel like it's relevant to do so. =)

When I am looking for ponies or actively involved in a purchase, daily.

When not?  Years can pass.

I’m on here multiple times a day! And sometimes late at night, too  ;)

Post by: Carrehz on March 08, 2018, 08:02:48 AM
Usually I check in multiple times throughout the day :) I don't always post every day tho, and sometimes I drop off and only check in once a day, it depends on how I'm feeling.
Title: Re: How often are you on the Arena?
Post by: Taffeta on March 08, 2018, 11:10:44 AM
It varies. I've been here a lot for the past few months, but I've also had years when I've barely been here more than once. It does fluctuate with how actively I'm involved in pony collecting, I think. I always love MLP but I am not always focused on that collection. But the people here are nice and it encourages me to be here more.

I think if you averaged out my number of posts vs the time I signed up, it would reflect that. I was a member of the old Arena but posted there only sporadically as I mostly used the TP at that time. I don't post at the TP any more. It's probably fine but I haven't forgotten some bad stuff that happened there in the past which the mods basically just let happen. I know the mods here wouldn't do that, so now I prefer the Arena :) I am sure the current TP mods are awesome. I just can't shake that memory and feel safer here.

Also now I have a phone that actually works, I do sometimes post from the bus to or from uni/work/wherever.

I also come here for a break from serious academic stuff involving either teaching or research.

And it's been a great place to escape and talk about ponies rather than dealing with other RL issues as well.

Multiple times per day. This is one of the most frequent sites I visit.
Title: Re: How often are you on the Arena?
Post by: achab1984 on March 09, 2018, 07:25:01 PM
I have been here for almost 12 years! I have posted 36,382 times. Break it down that come to 3,031 posts a year. That is 253 posts a month. But there have been a few times that I left for a little bit and then came back.

It's awesome to see that so many people post everyday! And it's interesting to see the results :)

It varies. I might check in a few times a week, and I might go on hiatus for a year. Depends on how busy I am and if I'm in my pony-collecting mood too. :P

Trying to check in every other day right now, after quite a long spell of me rarely logging in.

Considering i just recently joined it has been everyday checking the forum any free chance i get.

I’m usually here every day! I don’t always post but I like to check in and read regularly! The Arena was the first site to appear on my ‘frequently visited’ section on safari, so I think that speaks for itself  :P

Post by: CactusBloom on April 25, 2018, 08:30:17 PM
I used to be on here every day but my attention problems have gotten worse... I find it difficult to read topics that are longer than a page. Which makes it very difficult to participate.  :(

But I do enjoy reading and replying to short topics! I just wish I could pay attention to longer ones.

So I'm on here maybe once a week or so!

Post by: Mewtwofan1 on April 25, 2018, 08:48:36 PM
While I don’t post here every day, I do lurk here every day, or at least every other day. I have school and my animation job and art classes. I try to be on here as much as I can, even if I’m just hiding in the shadows.
     And I’m the same with sunsparkle. It was the first to show up under my frequent visits as well.

I have minions to hunt me down if I'm not :P

Lately, not that often, but I run a shop on instagram, so I need to socialize on there to keep things moving. This forum taught me everything I know about ponies and restoration that's now helping me pay bills (and collect, of course).
I used to get on a million times a day when I was around 13/14. I'd honestly like to be on more.
I've missed it, and but with this new name and my missing post count, I feel a little strange.
The one thing I was super sad to see gone when I came back was the chatroom! Guyyysss! ;...; It was the best. 💖
I love this place though, and I trust this board in general to always give me good advice and honest, informed pricing information. I've never been ripped off in a deal, and that's probably thanks to this board. 💖

Do you mean the shout box? It's still there, but you need a certain number of posts to be able to see and use it ;)

Once a day if life allows me and though I can go a month or more between posts. Pretty much soak up reading threads when I can to off set when I can't be online.

oh it very varies.

I don't post here for months at a time, then I'll pop in for a few weeks to post now and then... and then vanish back to tumblr and instagram again ^^;

I've been in a once-or-twice-a-month sort of lurker status these days. I feel like I rarely have much to say to contribute! But I do enjoy it here and love y'all!

I haven't had a day off since I made my first post. I will likely be here less frequently has time moves on but for now I'm finding it so exciting and beneficial for my personal mental health to have an outlet for my interests, something I have never had before  :lovey:
Title: Re: How often are you on the Arena?

Recently I've been on daily, but the rest of the time it's usually every few days.

Post by: Pheasant on May 10, 2018, 09:11:58 PM
Not often enough. :|

I try to be active here when I can, though! Sometimes I get burnt out on ponies and leave the site for a while, but I always come back. Like a bad penny. :lol:

Use to be on arena various times a day a few years ago.
