Since I joined this board several years ago, my stats say 4 days, 9 hours and 46 minutes.

Ah, but you're a special case (in more ways than one ;) - BUT) because you deleted your original registration and then began posting with a different account. All your initial posting history and time spent online was wiped out. That second account didn't become active until December 28, 2004, so those 4d 9h 46m have accumulated over a bit more than the last 2 years and 2 months.  [wink2]  In that time you've made 528 posts, but you had 490 posts made over a 2 year and 10 month period before you deleted your original registration - and those are now attributed to "guest" Nancy.

Slightly OT but...

I love your avatar pic, CastleBee. Reminds me of the time one of my cats decided to rub against a candle and catch his tail on fire, then run up and down the hall to get away from it.....Ah good times.

A while back I posted when I hit 21 days - I couldn't believe I'd spent 3 weeks of my life here!!  Now it's up to 25 days 1 hour plus.

For the record, I have 1 day, 13 hours, and 49 mins. :) I didn't even know that! lol. I spend time in other forums, but I also have school, baby, hubby, et al to deal with. Compared to some other forums I've been to, this one has a pretty relaxed pace. It actually
has picked up quite a bit since I first joined (what was that? a year ago?). When I first joined, I'd find myself asking a question that
wouldn't get answered for maybe a couple of days or so... Now that there are more active members on this forum, some of the
questions/responses might get answered in the bilnk of an eye. This forum really has grown nicely, methinks. ~DJ

I only have10 hours, 38 minutes logged in here, but that's because I generally only post once or twice a day. Still, it's a wonderful forum with great discussions, and I do enjoy it.

I'm sure one of the moderators will answer this better for you, when they see the question, there is probably something in the 1-2-3 testing section about it. You could use the search feature as well and type in karma or curses, cures and that would help.

The way it has been explained to me is that curses are good and cures are bad. If you like someone's post you click on the link underneath the number of curses or cures someone has. You can give them another cure or curse. Remember curses are good, cures are bad. I think some people may have this reversed in their mind but remember we're dealing with DS lol!

One doesn't even have to search. The topic "*** A Karmic Change ***" is stickied right to the top of the board.  ;)

Cures and Curses can also be awarded by clicking on floaties. We haven't seen one in a while - but one never knows when another may show up.  :D

i haven't been posting much lately...my computer has a virus and it's running so slowly it's just not fun. >:(

but i was somewhat surprised to see that i was in the top twenty posters with the "most time online".some of you have been here much longer than me.

when i logged on today i clocked in at 20 days,23 hours and 44 minutes.so i'm about to hit 21 days!

i usually end up watching the show anywhere from two to four hours a week.generally in two-hour blocks(four or five episodes)like watching a movie.
sleep 'til noon and your punishment shall be the dregs of the coffeepot.

Think of it as being one of the forum's biggest supporters. And we appreciate that.  :)

That could lead to less time spent on the forum. If they gave out prizes, it would probably be something like a mouse pad.  ;)

Exactly! We don't want to distract anyone from spending their time on the forum.  [nono]  If we were to reward members, it would be in the form of some "special" forum privilege. And, actually, a few of those are already in the works. But discussing anything now would be premature.  ;)
