Have you ever got the feeling you've joined too many forums?

I used to get that feeling all the time, but now I really don't care on how many I've joined since I forget I'm a member on most of them.
 
Of the, let me count here a second.... Six, I think, total, that I've joined, this is the only one I am still active on.

Four of the others have gone to that great database in the sky.

And the other one that is still around is worthless now unless you are a member of their clique.
 
I feel the act of joining a forum is not making a commitment to that forum, so I don't feel bad for not returning if I forget about the forum.

I've probably joined "too many" though. :P
 
I know I've joined to many forums , and can't even remember the password to half of them :lol:

That's about how I see it as well. I usually try to write a few posts and an introduction to get a feel for whether or not I want to stick around. If it seems like a great community, I'll remain active. If not, it's no harm done to the forum's owner.

Then again, in the past six months I've probably easily joined 150+ forums, maybe five or six of those I am active on.

Wow, that's a lot of forums. :shock: Did you join mainly to advertise?

Time was when I was active on 4-6 forums, not all of which are around anymore. I've been cutting back quite steadily. Don't seem to have the time anymore.

Where's all your time going? School?

Joining a forum doesn't mean much to me. It takes all but 60 seconds or so to create the account and to activate it.

That said, I still have cut back quite a bit. :P

This exactly.
I make no promises as to my activity when I join. So no, I do not feel like this.
 
I have been on three different forums. Well, one I don't go to anymore, and that's SMW Central.
