How do you TexasCHLforum.com?

Post by fickman »

I'm just curious what your TexasCHLforum routine is.

I typically log on and interact during work when I'm waiting on somebody else or taking a break. . . I'll visit this site, a few news sites, and dabble in social media before getting back to the grind.

I always start with "View your posts" and then spend the rest of my time in "View active topics". I haven't surfed to the specific forum home pages in years.

What about you?

Addict, deep reader, multi tasker.

I check this site a lot. My email, this forum, reddit Starcraft, drudgereport and arfcom get checked pretty regularly.

I even check on the forums that haven't applied to me in years, like "new to chl" and "the waiting room".

Its hard not to go into the waiting room and be the old man in the room.

"you darn kids..whining about a 30 day wait...when I applied in 09 I had a 3 month wait!" :lol::

View new posts
and Twitter open in 2nd tab watching for gun news
and Google in third tab searching
"burglar shot"
"robber shot"
"intruder shot"
etc
so I can post crime section and tweet them

Then I watch news in Waco, Austin, San Antonio, Temple/Killeen

Whoops. Editing it cleared the results. Lesson learned.

Resubmit your votes if you so desire. Nothing scientific will be done with the results.

Your post count also qualifies you.
