Finding time for The Site

How do people find the time to use The Site?
Do you, for example, have a schedule: maybe Monday you spend half an hour reading it, Wednesday you make posts, Friday you read it half an hour again.
Or do you confine use to weekends?
Or is it simply just whenever?
Not a sarky question, genuinely interested.

When get in from work and before I go to bed are generally the time I check.
It used to be when I had a lot more free time or was sat around doing not much - I'd just be surfing the internet, end up checking in here and spending hours! Now I'm sat at a computer all day replying to e-mails, and my laptop is broken, so I'm much less likely to go and sit in a different room at the desktop and consciously come on here.
Sometimes i come and have a search if theres a random piece of advice im after, usually its allready been posted about before, which helps. If it hasnt, its easy enough to ask.
So quite a bit i guess, more so this week as im off work relaxing.
During non term time- If i have a query, or am bored!
Granted, but it might still help when you decide to use a forum, certainly if you don't get much free time.
I ask this question, because I'm thinking if you didn't use this site consistently, only every now and again, you wouldn't get a lot of out of it. So it needs to be kept up.
Mainly post now whenever i decide to have a look about. Used to always come on drunk when i came in at night. But don't usually come home at night anymore.
It's also nice to veg out online for a while before life continues.
Same here. Coupled with times like now at work where I'll come on for a quick browse.
I don't post anywhere near the amount that I used to, but i still read a lot of threads.
Interesting point - I think the more you use a community the more you feel a part of it - but I think there are plenty of people who use the forum to ask just one or two questions and get a lot of hearing other's viewpoints and suggestions for dealing with the issues troubling them
Then after a while i started posting.
i currently read whenever my character is on a flight lol
