I'm on my forum almost everytime I get on my computer, I don't know if you call that working on my forum or not, but

Atleast 4 hours a day...

[gemcotechnologies]

I usually have one of the computers logged on all the time. I might be on another one but it is still logged on. I guess I spend about 4-6 hours a day working on something for my forum. I might be researching advertising, new mods, or just hanging out with the screen on while I work on my hosting business or playing Star Wars.

I think I spend at least 2 hours each day on the internet browsing forums and working on my own forum.
But some days it could be over 5-6 hours I think...
Depends a bit on how much time I spend with my girlfriend, how long I have to go to school that day,...

i would say between 2 to 8 hours a day, 2 days normally when im home, unless i have to be someplace like this friday, i'll be on for like 30 mins, but long breaks and weekend, between 6 and 8 hrs. dont know if i've gone over that, u cant really keep track of time when ur doing stuff like this lol

I spend a lot of time on various forums. Since I post fast, it may just seem longer than it is.

[Nuke]

Right now activity on my forum is a tad bit slow, so I'll only spend a max of two hours posting and making sure things are running smoothely. I also moderate on another forum, so I typically split time between the two forums.

[danrak]

As much as I can spend.  It various day to day due to other offline things.  On a typical day it can be as many as 8 hours.

[Harro]

And do you combine that with another (offline) job aswell?

[stoliSambuca]

I try to spend 8 hours+ and I can do that because this is my full-time job.  Right now, I need to do a lot of administrative work, and I need to go meet an accountant, go meet a business associate and stop at various public offices, but once things settle down, I am hoping that I can spend 10 hours+ or so like I used to.

Nice.
Would love to make a living out of this. But I doubt it'll ever happen

Nice?

Well, I'm just getting by.  I know that many people make good living doing what I do, but I'm quite there yet.  Also it was pretty difficult for me to grow my business for variety of reasons, and I decided to move to India.  Cutting the operation cost was not the only reason why I moved to India, but it's definitely one of bigger reasons.  I'm hoping to grow my business, but right now, I need to focus on surviving.

I check my forum every hour to get rid of spammers and answer any new posts. I try to make threads as often as possible, and I'm always on the lookout for new mods.

But isn't it nice that you can make a living out of something you really enjoy doing?
But I definatly understand that it's very difficult to do.
Hopefully everything will go beter once you're fully settled down.


@etali: always on the lookout for new mods?
Do you need so many of them?
