Where Is Everyone

[modaz]

there used to be about an average of 15 per evening on this betta section and now in 5 days im lucky if ive seen 3 on here, yes i know the posts are going up but, whenever i come on no one is around, i feel so lonely

I know what you mean! it is a bit slow isnt it, maybe we should try a fun photo post again everyone always comes out the woodwork for those!

 

[LauraFrog]

Haha, that thread was so ridiculous... how many pages did it get up to?

That was so funny though... when there WERE fifteen people on and it was the first time I'd seen it, I started reading from the start and by the time I got to the end of it it was three pages longer than when I'd started! Dead serious lol

My problem is timezones, I'm not usually on when US/UK posters are on. I'm in Australia, GMT+10 (Australian Eastern Standard, Vladivostok Standard, Guam Standard.)

 

[fifefish]

the uk posters are on GMT which is 10 hours behind you, and it depends what part of america your talking about

 

[newfishy]

azul and I are in us eastern standard time, so we are several hours behind the uk.

Awwwwww Billy No Mates

We're around most days but things have been hectic the last few weeks and also had a close family bereavement this last week so haven't been posting as much as normal.

I had noticed that there is very rarely people on at the same times especially over the weekends......I guess the youngsters are all out partying !!!!!!

 

[AmberLynn]

I notice that whenever Im on no one else seems to be and ive been on quite a bit since Im not allowed to do anything else but relax, lmao

 

[newfishy]

what is this partying you speak of? I change diapers, horse bedding and tank water. that is generaly the whole of my day lol.

 

[Cdarmychi]

Partying...I miss partying....

Someone remind me what that's like??
LOL

 

[Netty]

Oh the fun we had in the good old days eh......before kids

One drink now and I'd have to be carried home

 

[newfishy]

One drink now and I'd have to be carried home

that sounds a good bit like my mom, except she cant find the floor after 1 beer and she walks like the floor is 3 feet higher then it realy is.

I actualy dont drink at all anymore, esp right now.

Ha, I know! I'm not online on weekends because I'm too busy doing piles of homework, then killing a few assignments, and trying to remember which tank I've got the siphon line hooked up to, etc etc. I haven't been to anything anybody would call a party all year - just some quiet girls nights. (Well I doubt you could really call them quiet when, after watching all three pirates of the caribbean movies back-to-back, and at 3AM, my friends jokingly accused me of liking this total jerk in the year above me - but that's beside the point.)

Besides, if I had a party at my place and the drunks knocked over one of my fish tanks I'd never speak to em again! So of course I just remove the temptation

 

[Spishkey]

i think its just the time of year, everyone is busy with something(!)

 

[MaddieJ]

Hehe, busy indeed! Fish, snakes, dogs, cats, family, shopping, cooking, cleaning.. Rinse and repeat lol! I'm now doing three web sites as well as xmas shifts at a shop down the road. 7am - 7pm, 20th - 24th, then home to work on the websites til the early hours.. ouch
