How much time do you spend reviewing "review" boards?

[letsn0twastetime]

I was going to post a poll, but haven't figured that out yet but basically I wonder if I'm weird by checking all 3 review boards in the GTA I'm on every other day. How much time do you spend on review boards in a day? or a week? or in a month?

Guess I like hanging out in the lounge since you can read about topics that you could never hear in the "real" world in a million years.

wayyyy to much time.

I check it out an average 30 to 40 hrs a month,that is still to much but there are some good topics posted by terbies on here.

Do you guys just check one board or all of them? Review wise see a lot of copy and pasting, so I wonder if there's need to really check them all. Most offer the same experience wonder if there is a reason to check one over the other ?!

 

[letsn0twastetime]

Don'y know what planet you are from but in my "real" world, 99% of the topics exist

Really?! You'd have a water cooler discussion with someone at work about if she does greek, what was the worst thing about it, what she does to prepare? Suppose if you don't mind being labelled 'that guy' then ya go for it...

What are the three review boards? I think I know of one other than terb.

I look at terb pretty much daily when I have access to a computer.

I'm a member of 8 different boards across the country and I browse all of them daily. I've found that by following all of them, I'm able to get a good overview of what's happening in the industry nationally. Many of us share info across the boards these days, so it's a great way to keep a lot of people informed about political, legal and social issues affecting the industry, along with all the intel on the ladies.

Well this is the 'red' board. Then there's the 'blue' board and the last one I guess dark 'blue' there's another one I saw recently but looks cheesy and not of the same calibre. In respect of the mods I won't mention them but just google and you should find them.

If interested in seeing someone specific I check out terb and blue and if reviews are generally bad i pass do come on at least 4 or 5 days a week to see what is going on,generally have had good luck with all SP's I've seen because of checking reviews.

But lots if reviews tend on be copy and pasted do you see something different on the other boards ?

Yes, each board is unique.

They all seem to have different 'atmospheres' and moderating styles. Some boards have tons of SP's that participate in the lounge, others have only one or two. Boards are used for references a lot more in some cities than others, depending on the bylaws.

Terb seems to have the most diverse selection of 'intellectual' thread topics with a big emphasis on political, legal and social issues, while other boards are more focused on fun, frivolous topics. Some have a friendly, welcoming vibe, others are more hostile. Some are infested with trolls while others rarely require Mod intervention.

Never a dull moment ...

I spend far too much time on the boards. My regular job requires me to be on the computer for countless hours. I like to distract myself by reading the threads here.

With a big data plan, smart phone & lots of time at work I spend far to much time here killing time.

In general find reviews consistent regardless of what board,the odd shill but do homework and like i said have had pretty good results.The odd disappointment but they were generallyTOFTT

I'm active on 4 different review boards, but how much time that I devote to each really depends on my travel destination or if I'm hobbying locally. For example, if I'm heading to Toronto, I spend more time on TERB checking the reviews/ads and hanging out in the lounge. Although, I'm on one board or another practically everyday whenever I have free time. All the various review boards can become addictive, especially since they're so easily accessible from my smartphone.

Not too much time but I find myself reading wayyyy too much of a particular board which boarders on the insane. It's a "suga" board and 99.9% of the stuff on it is false but man what a trip.
