Quick Survey
06:41:26 Apr 15th 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

Well, I have been doing a research study on "Internet Addiction" for a little over a month now.  I am currently interested in recording about how many hours people spend online in a week(The Average).  I have been studying various psychologists and their own studies and wish to just get some numbers from online while also doing studies offline.  Just give the average amount of hours you spent on the internet in a WEEK.  Will hopefully be interesting.  Please be honest now ;)


06:42:47 Apr 15th 09 - Mr. Justin:

Well I usually log in as soon as I arrive at the office so I think that would make at least 5 hours a day(Is usually 2 hours late) and log in about two to three hours at home when I arrive. Not including sundays of course, well If I feel like going out anyway. I think its safe to asume that I use the internet 48 hours a week.

14:56:15 Apr 15th 09 - Mr. Killer:

Somewhere around 26 hours, more if I'm not at school. (Also, what's the point of this survey?)


15:10:22 Apr 15th 09 - Lady Loud Tone:

Yeah, how right you are ali. What else would you spend 100+ hours on, if not VU?


18:48:30 Apr 15th 09 - Lady Loud Tone:

Ugh Pure I've just read your post. I hate people that say that. Its one of my pet peeves, theres posts between you and him. Obviously he isn't aiming it at you.

E.g. when something like this is happening, some nub (lets use a random name here... erm... pure)

Pure > Hi guys
Randomer 1 > Hey
Randomer 2 > Yo
Randomer 69 > Sexy time
Randomer 1 > You know what the best thing about sexy time is?
Randomer 2 > What?
Randomer 1 > I'm not sure, what do you think?
Pure > Me?

Thats the sort of stuff that pisses me off so much. NO NOT YOU!


18:51:35 Apr 15th 09 - Archangel Argyle:

I would estimate it to be around 5 hours each workday and 10 hours each day off. However I do not actually sit by the computer all that time, it's more of a thing I get back to when Im not doing other stuff. (like keeping the household and doing other manly stuff.

So maybe 40-50 hours a week. of which at least 25 is active time in front of the computer.


19:03:31 Apr 15th 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

Let's not start arguments in here now :)


19:52:41 Apr 15th 09 - Mr. Seloc:

Other manly stuff?

Changing the lightbulb.
Keeping all the wires that may or may not have a purpose.
Keeping all the manuals that come with any electronical thing, most of which you don't even own anymore.
Keeping a plentyful supply of batteries new and dead.

That sort of manly stuff?


19:55:58 Apr 15th 09 - Mr. Backwards:

considering i do college at home, live in the country with friends at the least 10 miles away, um I have a lot of time on the computer, say 5hours on the computer each day for games, and 5 hours on the computer for school, not counting the weekend, that 50 hours give or take a few hours each week

Edit: that for average school weeks, with finals coming up, its about 1 hour for gaming and 5 for school


21:49:26 Apr 15th 09 - Demonslayer William Berkeley:

I am just finding things very interesting about internet addiction, being a previous addict.(I believe my personal record was 13 hours on one online game nonstop about 5-6 years ago) Hence my interest in researching this area.  Defining is there really such a thing as internet addiction? Is nice to see some answers(Honest I hope)  that can give me a look at different people from different areas from around the world.


21:51:18 Apr 15th 09 - Mr. Pineapple:

Only 13 hours?
Wuss

I used to 24 hour it some years ago


22:03:26 Apr 15th 09 - Mr. Killer:

You can be an addict of almost anything. All it requires is boredom and the right sort of person.


22:30:52 Apr 15th 09 - Lord Lord of The Flies:

Well... for me, since my job requires internet usage..lets do some math.

40+ hrs a week for work, and another 20 (I watch my baseball games on my computer) for everything else.

so 60-65 depending on the week

Then don't go saying "No Life Alert" when you may have fit into the category at one time...

According to research and some studies,

"The average weekly usage of those who fit the criteria of Internet addiction was 38 hours."

Fun to know :p


00:43:44 Apr 16th 09 - Mr. Malicous:

24 hours straight?  pfft... light weights... get crystal meth man, that chit can keep you going for 72 or more hours..... crack?  not so much, you see that is the problem right there.... weak drugs man, get some of the real chit  ;)  and my answer to the poll is.... Yes, Charley is a dweeb (was that the question?  oh man, need more meth)


01:53:39 Apr 16th 09 - Sir Lynus The II:

02:00:25 Apr 16th 09 - Praetorian Wyzer:

It has varied so much over the years...

5+ years ago.... 80+ hours with ease, damn you PC Bongs and StarCraft!
4 years ago...... 10 hours a week, if that.
3 years ago...... 30-40 hours a week, was building up my business a bit.
2 years ago.......20 hours a week, just talking with customers, etc.
1 year ago........ 40-50 hours a week, business is good!
Since the new year...... 10 hours or less on the average.
