net surfing habits

taranaki · #1 07-13-2002, 07:10 AM

I have been online for just over a year now,and the novelty is definitely wearing off.

It would appear from my History file(I can keep one now that I don't pornsurf any more:o )that I have only visited 8 sites in the last month.....5 of them repeatedly.

The biggest number of hits?AF,of course

so....do you surf?
how long have you had access to the net?
are you bored with any types of site yet?

I've had a computer for 3-4 years, I was a chat junkie when I started! then I became a RP junkie. Now I dig the posts. I hardly go into chat rooms anymore, I don't bother meetng new people on ICQ or AIM.

I use the internet to play games, visit my 7-8 posting boards(all car boards mind you) research cars, pirate software/mp3s/videos.

I have been on the net 7 (YES!!! 7) years

AF is the only site I frequent at these days although if I listed the other sites I visited I would be banned for sure :finger: It is all starting to get boring

I pretty much stay in AF except to check e-mail, gamecodes(uses one site), and a friends website.......and occasionally when I get reports, I must research them!

That's it though.....

NET JUNKIE! RIGHT HERE!!! LOOK NO FURTHER!

I started about 6 years ago when I was a freshman in High School. I was a chat junkie, as we just got the state-of-the-art 56k modem... Oh yeah baby! I frequented EWSonline.com until Eric (webmaster and former AIM buddy) turned it into a JAVA chat and changed all the best things about the site... I then used the internet mostly for e-mail and meeting new people on AIM... I don't really know what else I did come to think of it. I guess I did my research online. Never bought anything until this past year online. Now I have a set routine: logon to AIM, check e-mail, logon to SBW.com (motorcycle forum), logoff SBW, logon AF.com and check forums in set order. All while chatting usually with as many as 5 people at once! Oh, and I almost always am listening to some sort of music to accompany my surfing.

Ive been online for about 7 years. Its addicting, thats for sure.

I go through stages, where I get tired of the online world, then a while lator I come back and spend so much time its sickining. I try to get outside a bit during the summer (this shows in my lack of posts lately), but in the winter and during school I am definitly hooked.

carnut · #14 07-14-2002, 12:32 AM

Why, yes I am and Internet junkie. This site (AF) rocks!!!! I also visit other sites as I have varied interests. Check e-mails from friends and family as well as various retail places. I also check out e-bay once in awhile.

My biggest surprise was when I did a search for surfing sites (old ex small wave surfer who still like to see the young ones in action) and came upon a naughty site

I hardly watch TV anymore, as you can tell, Saturday night here and I'm on AF!

EDIT by boingo82: Removed porn link so those of us at work don't try to see what it is.

I guess you only need to glance at my post counts to see where i hang out most of the time.

Still surf the net for other stuff but not as much as i used to.
