I love my WFP and these forums. and have noticed that some people are on line in the early hours.. :o I too are spending too much time on here
 
I decided to get up and make my wife a cup of tea and found out that she lefted me 4 months ago   ::)

Wifes and girlfreinds don`t leave you because of hobbies and forums that`s a fact if you look deeper into the real problem.

Yes it is an obsession, and most of those named including myself have obsessive personalitys. But that's not a bad thing and is closely linked to being driven and highly motivated.Some post a lot because they have a business agenda, others because of a highly developed sence of humour,or like to help people. I like to debate and in my case it's worse because i'm also pedantic and have to have things right.

Forums and the exchange of ideas with people in other parts of the country/world is one of the great things about the net.

I post on another half a dozen (non WC related) forums apart from here .  :D

I have to admit I have obbsesive tendancies, They don't seem to have set patterns but it can be with the most simple things!! I mostly become obsessed with subjects and facts! Using this forum has probably saved me money and working time and also earnt me alot more money but the cost is loosing my time. I am better than I was, I can now easily go a week without needing to go on the forum, but before I used to check it everyday. In our house we have 2 computers on 24/7 connected to the internet so I can go on the forum anytime! Luke

Yes listing the top users was obsessive and an excellent example. I am just the same. Depending on how you apply it this can either be seen as character fault or a massive advantage when it comes to earning money.

My friends notice it alot, I become obsessed with subjects and bring them up constantly and even research them to find out the facts, Luke

Post by: Captain Scarlet on December 23, 2007, 06:30:30 pm
Infact I used to like having my name on the top four or five posts as the last poster......very sad I know but at least it's not drugs, Luke

I've noticed that shiner likes to help people.I often have little insights about people but very seldom are these appreciated.

In terms of business I like to bounce my ideas, and although this  can be a very negative place i do learn. Have you noticed that Jeff doesn't post anymore?. He would top my list of the most helpfull posters. Alex G is brilliant, but have you noticed that he never gets drawn into any of the personal nonesence unlike many of us.

There are some very helpful posters around here.  Although I do try to help, my technical knowledge is very sketchy.  I take your point about Alex G.  He keeps his contribution to this forum strictly for window cleaning stuff.  Best way to do it too IMO.

And of course Squeaky is funny.

I think I am the most misunderstood poster. I get accused of digging and spitefulness, but in fact there is nothing malicious about me.

I actually think that about myself sometimes, perhaps my sense of humour just doesnt come across as its meant.
