Efest posts

Ive noticed recently that it seems to be busier on here during the daytime when people should be working  when do you post ? do you take a break in the quieter months / fallow year or are you an all year round any time of the day and night person ? hopefully I can drag some of the ticketless out of an understandable break from the forum ...

I’m here 24/7/365, it’s either that or face the real world.

Ironically I’m on here least for five days at the end of June.

[Rubber Soldier]

I dipped in and out during the fallow year just gone, don’t think I ever actually posted. Post semi regularly otherwise. I couldn’t come anywhere near if I didn’t have a ticket, I know @SwedgeAntilles took an extended period of absence last year when we didn’t get our full quota ?

I do a quick check first thing in the morning at the festival when I wake up and the internet is at its best ... thats it for me whilst there

My phone cant seem to get onto efests without forcing me over to "you've won a prize" websites so I mainly use during the day

 

edit: shhhhh im working too..

I'd usually be posting much less this time of year but there's a real excitement about next year. Usually my excitement peaks around ticket sales, then it steadies up to Christmas, then perks up again January onwards as most festivals start to announce their lineups.

Partly the 50th and partly the mystery surrounding the headliners has just made me permanently excited atm. It's gonna be a long bloody wait until the new year for some announcements. Easily the most hyped i've been for a festival.

the Gold option sorts that although I know its not for everyone

I normally drop out for a month or two post festival then come crawling back. I have to put my phone in my drawer at work to avoid refreshing constantly. 

[eastynh]

I post when City win and avoid when they get beat.

[paulshane]

I have two monitors at work, one has work stuff, the other, forums like this one

Evenings i'm usually doing non computer stuff, so its mostly day posting from me.

[Dronx]

On the train in the way too and from work and when the conversation with the wife becomes a bit tiresome when home. ?

[JoeyT]

99% of my posts are done whilst at work when I should be working.

1% when on my phone either at home or out and about.

[Matt42]

Everything I open up the forum something changes at the moment. I can’t stay off it.

[pahqman]

Daily work ritual of checking the forums every hour or so and the webcam at least once

Rarely go on at home unless I'm involved in a conversation.

[Gromite]

Mostly at work, and only really once i have a ticket. 

Will briefly check while at the festival for secret set news.

[BambooShanks]

It's only really in the last 18 months that I've become more active in the 'off season' but that's mainly because my job has me sitting at a desk a lot more so its a lot easier to jump on to here for a quick 10 minute catch up.

Otherwise I'm more likely to be active during my commute to and from work and a bit in the evening.

Once it gets to April, my browser always has a tab from here and the webcam open lest I miss anything. 

[chazwwe]

I'm here daily, my work hours are a little varied though and I have a desk job, so it allows me to do a fair bit of viewing.

I'll check once a morning, maybe on a very quiet moment during the festival for secret sets, but I don't post, I have twitter set up for secret sets. 

Normally take a break a few days after the festival and not normally on here in July. 

[Homer]

I find not having a ticket stunts my usage a tad.

[joeltg]

Can't face it for a while if I miss out on a ticket, but usually check in at least every other day at work.

 

[Padjeq]

Generally only come on here when I'm work, because that's when I'm on a computer.

[lukethekid]

I’m a night owl

 

[Ayrshire Chris]

Retired not so long ago so dip in and out all day, though when I was working, with a PC in front of me, the temptation was always too great. It’s totally addictive. 

[gigpusher]

For me it's when I'm using my laptop which is more often during the day. It's too much of a faff on a phone. I may be currently at work (although it is technically my lunch hour now)

Aye I tried to stay involved when I was still thinking about trying in the resale but as that got increasingly unlikely it just became unbearable. Back with a vengeance now tho

I think I probably spend more time during the day than in the evening. Self admittedly work shy.
