I wonder what is the longest time one keeps psoting and reading things here, when do you think it is déj}a vu and move on with your life. At one point I was here everyday for about 3 months and now rarely, I read most of what I had to read, the rest posted here seems to be a rehash of what has been said in other words...

well, Loborojo, I see WrongPlanet as a merry-go-round (or a round-a-bout)

We all get off when we need to get off, and we can catch it later, if we want to ride again.
Some of us try different painted ponies, some like the giraffes and the zebras, some take a little spin in the sleigh seats, and some people ride that same damn pony every single ride.
and some of us work in the center, pulling the ropes and seeing the pullys are working right and the gears are meshing correctly to keep it all whirling around.

come ride when ever you need us. :wink:

Have a daily routine with WP,so visit it every day,and have done since before joining [as a lurker,to get the site into routine].
When have broken a laptop,will use any other method to get online,the last time it was using a sony PSP to come on WP and would have regular memory time out errors on it because the site is so big,but some idiot stole it.
Even when went into hospital last year,was logging onto WP every day via one of those horrible patient line plus sets,which are almost impossible to type on.

WP is a stepping stone, you learn from it and move on.

I've come here pretty much every day since I joined. It's a part of my routine, and it has been for a long time.

Yes, the same themes keep coming around, it's all new at first though, and reassuring to know that others have experienced the same things or had problems with similar issues and found a way of coping with things, but a bit boring if you've read the same thing lots of times so I don't post in those kind of threads any longer.

I don't spend much time here now, I just pop in every now and then and see if any threads catch my interest. Nice place to visit when I need a bit of AS company. It's not as complicated as RL. :)

Routine, routine... definitely a routine for me.

A high school senior? A college senior? An elderly person? Well I'm none of the three.

I think this place could use a clean up.

i think it has become routine for me - a loose routine, not as fixed as some others.
Occasionally i get really upset by something on here and i pull back for a few days, or if another special interest is boiling, then WP may take a backseat.

Basically my days are based at home with my special interest/work and then computer/email.
Of course I also factor in social time with the free range guinea pigs, my dog Peg, my cat William, the birds in the garden and the snake that has been around the studio of late, basking in the last of the sun before hibernation time here in subtropical murwillumbah.

Yes, I am in Ecuador, but soon moving back to Europe for a visit.
Well, I used to come here everyday as I said, and I had some comforting words here. Having been off it for a while is like feeling I am not an Aspie anymore only to find out when I reas certain things that I am one. However never fully or officially diagnosed I feel it is a place where I feel at home.

I'm going through the same thing you are. I'm seeing the same topics re-posted over and over because new people don't know they've been covered before, and more than once at that.

I DO feel at home here but I post much less than I used to. I don't know if/when I'll get to the point where I can choose my own "slogan" instead of being just a phoenix.

I'm very close. We'll see!

By the way, I do check this site every day and I really enjoy links to news articles. I've learned a lot by being a part of WP.
