Status: online 		How often are you checking RCU for new posts? 5 times a day? Twice a year? Maybe once every 5 years? Or maybe your on RCU almost all the time, possibly signing in every 10 minutes.

I check about 3-4 times a day. I would rate myself as a obsessive RCer.

Status: offline 		I've been away from RCU for almost a year, popping in every 6 months or so. Funny thing was though, I never signed out and I was still signed in after about 7 months the last time...

They were having server issues. For like 3 months the site would give me errors and even when it did work it wouldn't let you post..

yea I remember that used to be super busy till then with a pile of regulars
you were lucky to get one post out of 20 attempts, and 98% of the time you couldn't reload the forum unless you cleared 4 certain cookies


Now we have maybe 20 or so regulars, and a few newbies, and the posts died down drastically to the point where some forums you are lucky to see one post in a month as most ppl moved to other places that have less site issues.

As for how often I look to see if new posts generally whenever I remember to. I'll usually flip through al the forums I post at in one go to see if there are new posts. Now if a thread I'm posting in seems active I'll check every few mins till it dies out or Foxy closes it(what he does to all the fun threads ).

Goes to show how you need to deal with problems ASAP, it almost killed RCU. They should do something about this like a series of contests and promotions, get the traffic back to where it used to be.

I used to be on every 30 mins before the problem but now at most once a week.
