I've recently gotten a little overwhelmed myself with the amount of forums I go to on a daily basis, so I gotta question for y'all, actually two Q's.

How many forums are you a member of?
How many of those forums do you regularly visit/post in?

To answer them myself-
1-
Invision Power Boards
Invision free boards
Hosted-forum
Nexus
Halls of Levistus (My site)
Gamebanshee
Elder Scrolls Community
Totse
Proboards
3 Xsorbit forums including my old one
Titan quest forums
Wizards of the Coast DND forums
Swords and Arrows (An affiliate to my site)
The Roleplaying Gang (also an affiliate)
A PhPbb general forum

2-
Umm....all of them.


So 17 forums total...yeah....that's a lot to me.


So how many do you go to and post in regularly? If this thread has been done before, sorry, prolly missed in the search, but searching "Forums" is very general and it's hard to specify a search for this kind of thread.

I join only 2 forums. Gamespot's and GameBanshee's and a member on both of them. I visit GameBanshee forums regularly but the same can't be said for Gamespot's as I only go there to read comments and rarely post there. :p

Only two...

GameBanshee
PeonRevolt

(Peonrevolt being the site of a former WoW guild I had joined, named Warriors of Stranglethorn... now we're just a collection of people who were in that guild and still communicate after having been torn apart... )

Yes?
Hehe.
Well if we were to be strict about the link-rules, then there should be no clickities in signatures either ;)


On topic....
Currently - I only visit 3 consistently, meaning on daily basis: GameBanshee and 2 programming forums.

On ocassions I visit the forum of my WoW guild from which I'm not retired, but just keeping in touch, a forum for the my ISP/TV provider and one for the music streaming serivce I listen to at work.
But these 3 forums are more sporadic usage.

An Interesting Topic

I find it ironic I should wind up visiting the only forum I've ever spent any considerable amount of time at only to find a survey asking me where I've been. So I'll state it plainly for the GB community, "I've been loyal, these fingers have done no postin' elsewhere." Sort of a drought really, kind of like that spell in the mid 90's where I wasn't...oh, never mind.

Anyway, I thought it was worth dropping by to see how many parties were carrying on in honor of my birthday and to see how many monuments had been erected in honor of the same cause. Yet I arrive to find the keg empty and the festivities unattended. Has this become a dry forum?
