    Do you like debate about religion ( seen a lot of those)?  Do you like to flirt?  Post pictures?  Seek companionship?  Play games? Are you new to the forums?  Do you like to post threads?  What's your fix?  How much time a day to think you spend in the forums?

    Well that is a whole lotta questions  big_smile
    I like the variety of conversations and personalities you are introduced to and get to know through random bits of conversations.
    I don’t spend all too much time here anymore. If I averaged it I would say 20min a day???

    I will usually offer a few words in support of others or use the forums as an introduction to writers I might want to follow, but I never come to argue and I am too introverted to flirt, even if I would want to...

    I hate the negativity that can be in some threads. I love the fun threads, but not many of them around lately.  I like threads that post pictures. I love meeting people, and its where I find a lot of the people I consider following.

    I think that the religious tolerance shown on HubPages is inspiring and reflective of an evolving world moving quickly towards global understanding and universal peace.

      Shouldn't that be on 'tell a whooping lie' posting?  Still it made me snigger.

    I love that hubbers seldom bulls**t each other here and are always so polite and considerate.  I think its wonderful that all the threads are profound, meaningful and have really useful advice! And while some forums are just thin disguises for obnoxious flirting and sex-talk, here on HubPages the forums are on a much higher level.

    I can't really estimate an amount-of-time because I leave this and one other site (not a forum) up a good part of the time when I'm doing other stuff on the computer.  So, technically, my computer is on the forums for - like - 19 hours a day  lol (but I'm not always involved when it is).  smile  I just kind of pop on "whenever" and see if there's anything new to respond to, ponder (and then respond to) or get a laugh from.  It's also a good accompaniment to television (which these days is never worth paying complete attention to).  I avoid all religion and most politics.  Based on the fact that I noticed my name among the "most active in this forum" on the "books/writing forum", apparently that must be where I hang out most often.  I like the occasional "in-depth discussion" about anything (you know - everyone "discusses" for - like - 34 hours, off and on.... )

    I like the community, the exchange and the fact that the circle is growing larger and larger with every passing day.  I like that there hubbers who lend themselves to each other offering help, insight and inspiration.  I like that the forums, like life offer both that which I feel close to and that which I choose to distance myself from. 

    And I like hubbers that ask questions like yours! big_smile
