    Yes, but even there I read more often than I post. I mostly come around to read the Brit thread every now and then.

    Here daily, but mostly just to read. More of a lurker I guess. Post once in a while, if the topic or mood strikes me. Been know to PM on occasion.

    my commiserations! 3 lawyers tend to have 4 different opinions. And they'll charge you for 8 :D

    My rate of posting varies depending on whether or not any topic(s) pique my interest.

    Lately I post rather frequently, but hardly ever PM at all. Sometimes I'll go a while between posts; a weekend, several days, even longer. One time I went about thirteen years without posting.

    I used to post daily when it first started, then spent years lurking (couldn't keep up with threads). At some point some new software allowed thread subscriptions, so it was safe to resume a little.

    I post sporadically. Usually I lurk, but sometimes if a thread catches my attention I'll post... then the thread will immediately die :lol: Or, I'll come up with a topic nobody will respond to. I try not to let it discourage me, though :)

    Edit: Sorry for potentially shutting down this thread! :evil:

    I'm here daily, and I post pretty often, but mostly in TNZ, because I've no interest at all in debating the combination to Kirk's safe for the thousandth time, not do I, in general, care about other people's opinions regarding most entertainment, because it's all so very subjective.

    But rehashing why certain politicians and organizations and people are just awful in the extreme for the thousandth time? Sign me up!

    You know better than to link to another poster's profile while calling them "awful in the extreme" (I'm deleting it, so don't put it back in your post)).

    Infraction for trolling. Comments to PM.
    Don't do this again.

    Captain Kirk's combination to his safe just happens to be 5231 in case your wondering. I know the question would be on everyone's mind once it was brought up and had to be resolved. Which indicates he was with Section 31 during his first year at the Academy because that started on that earth date. He also meets Ruth who might have been a fellow agent and they destroyed the ship Charlie Evans was on because of a Section 31 mission since that also happened in 2252 and thus Kirk felt guilt and left Section 31. But he never wanted to forget what he he did that year thus went with the safe number 5231 which he keeps his old black badge as a rememberance as something he never wants to become again.

    My interaction over the last year+, or lack thereof, was the topic of another thread. Since then I've made an effort to be more active on the board.

    I've realized lately my posting comes in spurts. One day I might post heavily in the Trek forums (DS9 and TNG mostly), most days I see what the Sci Fi forum is doing, and sometimes I don't even post at all. I barely use the PM feature, but then no one PMs me.

    I bet Kirk's luggage combination is 1-2-3-4.

    Surprised by the poll, so I guess the most active posters haven't made it to this topic yet?

    Eh, I like Trek, but I'm pretty casual and not at all versed enough to really add in much to discussions about it. I mostly just stick to general, and even then, it's very slight.
