I'm on my phone more than I game and chances are I'll browse for news anytime I check my phone.

Not even close. I spend way more time playing game than talk about it. I don't quite understand why someone would do that actually ? And I'm really surprised at the poll results. Assuming they voted truthfully.

It certainly explains why so many people here have crazy huge backlog.

I play games daily but it's never anything to sink your teeth into. I spend way more time watching gaming related media on YouTube or reading about it online or here.

Nah. My average screen time for my phone (according to Apple) is about 15 hours a week and 50% of that might be Era time. Even if it was 100% I game way more than 15 hours a week. On average I game 3-4 hours a day.

No. Maybe. I don't know. I used to browse the old site basically 24/7. I'd say I'm here for like 1 - 1.5 hours a day.

I can check the forum from my phone while in class (like right now) or when I'm working at my family's bar. I cannot play at those moments but can easily take a glimpse at Era and calm down my gaming "needs".

Probably. But not all of the time.. when there's a fancy new game I enjoy I do play more than wasting time here.

You've got access to the internet on your phone basically 24/7 and most people aren't going to be gaming while they are at school or work. It's not surprising at all.

Yes and after the double and triple community split things became even worse, jumping between forums

No, I tend to only check Reset Era once I get to work (eating breakfast) and then lunch break.. for around 30 mins each time max. If something is going down I may keep it up in a tab and then refresh every 30 mins or an hour.

Of course when I'm hella bored I'll stop refreshing and actually go to page 2+

Not anymore, I still post regularly but back when I was not working for some moths in 2018 I'd definitely be here almost all day, now I prefer actually reducing my backlog and only coming here during my commute (if I'm not driving), during downtime at work or sometimes when I'm laying on my bed.

Yes. If it's slow at work I browse here. By the time I get off, I just want to watch a movie or something before going to bed.

I load up games of late and meander through for a few minutes and then shrug and load up Era and lurk so yes probably. Here and Reddit (where you can see naked women in amongst your lurking unlike here smh) and then I'll read or see something about a game, think hmm I should play that. I load up....and the cycle continues. Hoping Cyberpunk 2077 and TLoU2 bring me out of my cycle at least for a little bit before the new consoles arrive.

Technically yes, but that's only because I have this page open all day while I'm at work.

I am on here usually when I am working. So yes I do use these forums from work. Makes work goes by faster :)

At home, I am usually playing games and never on this site. lol

Only because I can do it while I'm at my desk at work, I don't tend to visit this place when I'm at home or on my break/lunch (when the Switch comes out!)

expected more votes on "here to laugh at nerds" haha. I browse this site very often but not for long periods of time, usually waking up and going to bed. Sometimes in my job but for less than 5 minutes

I spend more time here simply because I work a lot and I can browse while working. I can't play while working. But, when I'm off work, I would say I spend more time gaming than browsing.

Yes, but not really by choice. Work pretty much ensures I'm browsing the boards 6-8 hours a day, at least.

No and its not even close, typically i'm only on here when i'm at work, or out somewhere occasionally browsing on my phone. When I am at home, with the time to play something, I am not on here at all.

Lately, yes. I lurk here constantly during work so that lasts longer than the wee hours of free time I have each night. Thanks for keeping the slow work hours moving, y'all <3

Yes, because I only have 3 hours a night of "free time" which I don't always play a game, where as I can check this dumb site throughout the day.

I wanted to say yes, but actually no, not anymore. Between having more to do at work and being busy as a parent I actively browse the site in very short bursts these days. 3 or 4 times a day I will pop in for a quick look and be on my way.
I still get my gaming time in every other day, so I'd say I play more than I spend time on here.

No, but only because I spend more time on EtcetEra these days instead of playing games, not on gaming side (for the most part).
