I used to be very addicted, but I have really slowed down lately.

I'm back!

I can vouch for Mr.SpaceMouse. He's never on the forum more than eight or ten times a day unless he's really, really sick, then it's only eight times a day...[:p]

Addicted? No - I wouldn't go through painful withdrawl if it went down (I've got at least 3-4 other forums to check).

For me, the forum has grown on me ... and now I check it every few hours while I'm taking a break at work, and likewise from home evenings and weekends.

Like any forum, the material runs from really helpful, to the sublime and ridiculous. But I like sharing info with my fellow modelers, so it's fun ... as long as I still get time to work on the layout!

Definitely but .... After realizing how much time I spent here from October-December I realized I wasn't getting any real train work done, was doing research for other people instead of what I needed done, and generally sucking up too much time. So, I quit cold turkey for a couple months. Now I am careful how much time I let it consume. I almost never post new threads, and now consider before I even read a topic.

Are you addicted to Trains.com ?...
Posted by Anonymous on Friday, June 10, 2005 5:06 PM
I find that I'm on the forum here almost every day. Even if I don't create topics or reply to them, I at least stop by for a look see. So I guess I'm addicted whether I like to admit it or not...
