When do some members find time to have a day job, shoot, and post here? I got curious as to how many posts a few members had put up since their initial join date, so I took a look at the Members List and clicked on posts to sort for the high tally. One respected member whose name I see around here often has about 17,284 posts and has been a member for about 24 months. Do the math and that's 720 posts per month, roughly 24 posts per day, or 1 post every hour!!!:shock:

1 post an hour is nothing. I do around 22/day. It's not tough to post a good 20 times in an hour, if you spend a solid hour reading and replying. If you're a decent typist, it doesn't take more than a few seconds to type a sentence. Reading, even quicker.

Tim
I remember when Tim was a new member. He used to go down the list of new posts and reply to nearly every one of them at an incredible rate of speed. :)
As for working, shooting, and posting, my shooting is one of my jobs, and I post while I'm batch processing the shots. I also sleep very little. :lol:

I post while I'm at work, shoot when I'm at home. Simple case of time management really...

I tend to post in the evenings, often when I am between calls on night duty. i also sometimes post a bit in the mornings or at lunch time if I have the fancy - but on the whole i read more than i respond to. i like the chat threads but don't always get involved.

During the outdoor seasons, I shoot 3 days a week.
During the "indoor Michigan" season, I respond to questions like
"I just got a new DSLR, how do I go into the Photography business"....and other great questions.

It is easy to post lots. What is difficult is to post lots of important stuff. I am still waiting for my brain to kick in and post some important stuff.

I shoot mostly on weekends...my 10 hour days plus commute leave little time for photography.
I post on POTN on most nights...I tend to read more tham post. I like to answer questions where I feel I have either the knowledge or expertise to respond; and, I like to respond to folks who have "done good", posted a super photo, or just got a new piece of kit and are excited about it.
I will admit to posting from work from time to time mostly in the early morning when things are quite :o

My mom hates this place.
She thinks we all just shoot the wind and chat about junk that doesnt really matter.
Hmmmm.... Now that I think of it, I guess she is partly right....
