Me, too, Paradigm. I'm on everyday, lately just trying to update and keep old stuff featured rather than move forward. Spinning my wheels.
I check my stats and the forum every day.
No,not every day.
I look to see who wrote any comments or why score is changing.The forums are an added attraction
I haven't really had the energy to do the everyday thing. Now, I am playing catch up with my challenge, comments and reading my favorites.
I am sad when I don't check in at least once a day.
I am usually signed in and 'lurking,' every day, often in the forums, or reading hubs/making comments/answering questions...(or asking them), but I haven't had the energy to write much lately...just too much on my plate at home right now.
I hope things calm down for you soon. Isn't it over rated when we keep adding to our already full plate? The lists of "things to do" seem to get longer as we get older.
Thanks, Jo...
Around here, the issue of "ever more to do" is my husband's health problems, and the fact that I am his sole caretaker, on top of all the normal household duties...LONG, ugly story about bureaucracies, but we don't qualify for in-home help....
Between actual things that must be done, and the stress of worrying about him, I'm just spent...I wake up tired.
Well, I guess we are blessed with our men for a reason. I think we are initally drawn to them because of the safety to know they will always need us strong women. It is amazing over the past couple weeks, how I have found some similar instances where there are other people experiencing one storm or another. I know what you mean about waking up tired!
All we can do is breathe and pray through this time and be grateful when the storms pass. Try to give yourself some well deserved T.L.C. This is how I am coping. hugs!
I have been here every day of my life.... and on HP most days of the last 5+ years,
The tab is open on my computer which is on everyday - at some point I will check in!
This is just like myself. My tab is opened & I just refresh every day.
I am here very day, except when I am on a Holiday or out of town.
Not any more... the spark has waned since the No Follow tags were applied to the things that once inspired me to be here each day..
Usually drop in for a quick look around, but I don't spend nearly the amount of time I used to on HP
Stopped daily visits when I found my time was spent effectively elsewhere.
I am here everyday. I've also been trying to write a hub everyday (although I don't seem to be having so much luck on that).
Good afternoon Joel,
From my experience, for the average writer like me, it is not possible to publish one article a day of high quality and/or on well-researched topics. So now I write at my own pace ensuring high quality articles. Quality takes priority over quantity.
I go in and out of being here daily, I only recently tried writing.
I try to get on here daily to (at a minimum) check my notifications. Life doesn't always make this a possibility, but for the most part, I'd say I'm on here or on Word writing a hub at least 3 to 4 hours a day. I like reading others' hubs so that takes up a lot of my time. I also like taking and organizing notes on how to be successful, as I am really hoping to make writing a career someday.

I'm in and out every day to check stats, comments, etc. If I have a new hub, I'm usually in more often checking traffic. This lets me know if I'll be asked about my latest hub at the next dog show. I'm not in the forums everyday and can go many days without checking.
I check my stats just about every day. It's always exciting to learn whether I've earned one cent, two cents, or (hallelujah!) three cents on a particular day! I also click through to HP on at least one link to a new hub or a new forum post (like this one, for example) in most email notifications that I receive.
Every day as I have been doing in the past 5 years. Stopping by when the dogs are napping and allowing me a chance to take a break. Writing when I have ideas for handouts for clients or other inspirations.
I'm here every day, many times throughout the day. Writing, commenting, updating. Something.
I’m here many times a day, doing one or more of reading the forums, posting in them, reading and commenting on hubs, updating a hub or publishing a new one.
I try to be on every day but as we are traveling I cannot always get free wifi like on the ferry from Prince Rupert to Port Hardy .Also on the Alaskan cruise I wasn't on here for the week - was too busy exploring !
I try to be here everyday. Sometimes life of two kids keeps me way too busy and I just cant make it. Starting to be my new favorite site though.
Although I don't admit it publicly I'm here every day checking stats and hoping a hub went viral.
I am still trying hard to be here everyday.....
I will try to maintain this for a week. May be i will get success in doing this.

I'm starting to see AI-generated comments in the forum. This may well become the new normal, not just AI in submitted articles but also forum comments will become increasingly common.The comments don't have the colloquial feel and voice that people normally use in the forums. They have the detached...

When you log into HP for the first time in a day, what do you look for first? Stats, comments, other posts, what?I look at the comments next to my userpic so that if I am able I can reply to that first. Then I look at the most recent notifications. After that I switch over to HP email.

There are some troubled men who regularly use forums, and they have not a single hub in their profiles. How come? How is it allowed? I do not get it--- Is HubPages a chat-website?

I'm sure this comment will bring out all the smartass hubbers. And I'm sure you will all visit me with more smartass comments. Well, I'll just count how many of you are out in hubberland then I will go on with my day.

After signing into my account(homepage), I check for hub comments and if there's nothing then I go to my account page to see traffic reports.What about you?
