Why are some forum members more active than others?

For example @Mountainman hasn’t posted in a while.
Same with @Anon10 and @metime .
Some people are staples here while others are just occasional guests.

I come here for company mostly. I enjoy my time here so I come often.

On forums some people will always be more active than others. Just so long as people feel able to post when they have something to say is what matters most.

No, not guests. Some members work, go to school, and a plethora of other things.

I just got back from helping my real estate partner install a washer and dryer. I spend a lot of time interacting with loan officers and real estate agents.

So during the morning and daytime I’m pretty busy (I post when I can), but I usually post more often at night when I have more free time.

It’s good to get away from the family and I come to you all for that oftentimes.

I fluctuate between no and heavy use.

I think if a post relates to me I will answer. At first I was nervous to post but I feel comfortable posting now in our little community. More trust I guess. I come on this forum a lot each day especially while being in hospital. I think this forum grounds me. Sometimes triggers me but that’s ok.

Depends on how I’m doing and where I’m at in life. If I’m doing really well I don’t tend to come on here because I don’t feel the need for support. If I’m doing really poorly I don’t tend to come on here because I don’t want to drag the forum down or trigger people. So if im gone a long period of time it’s one or the other bahaha.

I have an Acoustic Neuroma (inner ear tumor) and I’m facing surgery where they will move my brain aside. So yeah, I haven’t been posting as much lately. What’s the problem?

I won’t post much after mid September. It might take a few weeks for me to be able to read again. The room will be spinning.

Good luck with your surgery @metime :slightly_smiling_face:

I try to check the forums at least once a day. Sometimes more sometimes less. I really enjoy reading and sometimes find I don’t have much to post. People here are great. I love the recovery oriented attitude of the forum. It reminds me to keep going at least little by little.
