Is the org good or bad?

Do you feel that the org is a worthwhile investment of your time and that it enriches your life, or is it more like an addiction that you can't shake, but would if you could, or is it just something that you do out of boredom that you wouldn't bother with if you had a more interesting life?

End.

I find it therapeutic. I spend too much time on here, sometimes...but I'm gradually weaning myself off it a little, day by day. It was addictive for a little while...hell, who am I kidding, it's still addictive. I just have to be careful not to keep writing all the time...endless, endless posts...rambling, just saying nothing of any importance at all really, all for the purposes of a little attention maybe...a laugh here and there...I could go on...in fact, I will...the org is good. It lets me express myself creatively. It kicks my arse sometimes, but mostly it keeps me sharp, I hope.

That said, I have a life outside of the org which I partake in from time to time, too. wink

The thing is, I just can't wait to see what people are going to say next most of the time. Like with this post for example. I'm sure I will get at least one person who teases me about what I've said for some reason. But that's just part of posting your opinion in front of many others, I guess.

I find it much more good than bad. I almost always learn something new and on days where i may feel a little down there is always something to make me laugh in here.

Both, depending on the day...biggrin

The org pulls in a diverse group of people, and that's exactly why I love it.

I've gone through the ups and downs, and am still here - like many others.

If anything, it's an online fan community - exactly what's written below it's name. wink

I find it amusing at times. If I want or need a laugh all I have to do is lurk the org. Sometimes I do not have time to go out and sometimes I am just to tired, bored and I can just log in instead of get'n in the car and finding somewhere to go. Plus it helps save money also, because otherwise I would be shopping more. Especially for things I do not need. nod ...So the org has it's benefits. confuse or shall I say I get my benefits out of the Org.

Depends on your outlook on it I guess? I'm still fairly new here, with a very low post count, so I can't really comment on the 'Org. But...I am (was) on another MB for the Corrs. As of last Sunday, I've not visited the site. And along with that, everyone I knew from that site that I had on my MSN list, I deleted off.

Why did I do this? Well, for me it was becomming disrupting. I'd find myself going to that MB or on MSN and sometimes ignoring other things I'd want, or needed to do. Plus, I was finding I was caring about some of those folks maybe a little too much. Not that that is a bad thing. But really how can you call someone a friend if you've never met them or probably won't?

So, basically, if you don't let this place become an obsession, then there is nothing wrong with spending your time here at all I don't think. Plus, for me, it's better because the majority of you are closer to my age here than the folks on the Corrs MB I was on.

Prince.org is a fantastic site.
It is fabulously designed!
I have found no other as easily negotiated; nor as well designed.
The founder/builder of the site is a genius. Really. nod

Now as to how the site is used by us, that is another matter.
But I must like it...or I would not hang around. smile
So...how's everybody doing? smile
