Net54 Junkie
 
How many time a day/week do you check into Net54 and hit NEW POST to keep up and read every relative new update post to your collecting style?

Less than once a week

Once a week

Once a day

3 times a day

More Then that

I did not create a true poll to open up conversations.

Me personally is most days more than 5

Tomorrow will be 12 years on here for me and this site has become part of the hobby. Since I have averaged 2.43 posts a day I would say I am on here way more than I should be. LOL

Everyday. An enjoyable distraction from the daily grind. These are my people and I really enjoy the knowledge here and the friendships made.

I was at a summer party yesterday and laughed thinking if I opened a conversation with “Hey, I just finished my E94 Crawford run after 5 years!” The reaction would be crickets and tumbleweeds…

I think about this type of interaction more than I’d care to admit.

Check it approx 6 times per day minimum

Not that I’ve ever done it or ever would, but I imagine the reaction would be quite different if you said “Hey, I just sold a 21 Exhibits Ruth postcard for $10,000”.

Same for me.

sbfinley 06-22-2025 06:07 PM

Couple times a day. Unless there is a slap fight between adult male teenage girls ongoing on the forum - then I’ll just pour a drink and refresh endlessly.

Section103 06-22-2025 06:28 PM

I dont post a lot (others have more knowledge, better collections) but I check many, many times a day - particularly the BST. Its still a significant source for my collection and much better than scrolling thru social media.

ValKehl 06-22-2025 08:11 PM

At least once a day.

Brownie33 06-22-2025 09:30 PM

Probably at least every single morning, afternoon, and evening. I even find myself searching through conversations that have taken place years ago to learn more about the hobby. It’s pretty much my hobby search engine at this point.

The quality and quantity of information I have learned though the SEARCH function has been invaluable to me for my collection. A for baseball trivia in general. Can’t say Thanks enough to Leon for is incredible site.

philliesfan 06-23-2025 07:10 AM

I guess several times an hour. I "work" from home and keep a browser window open for NET54 and am always checking for both new posts or looking at old ones. I only average .40 posts per day so I don't really post much, but I am always checking older and newer posts. I will be retiring at the end of the year and I wonder how much time I will be on NET54 then.......

Sadly, probably once an hour. As another work-from-home person, it breaks up the monotony ... and you never know when that thing you need is going to pop on B/S/T. It's also great learning about items I never knew existed.

Beercan collector 06-23-2025 08:34 AM

Usually several times a day unless I got a lot of outdoor work to do .

NiceDocter 06-23-2025 08:39 AM

It doesn’t matter
 
It doesn’t matter how many times a day I check it…… I always just barely miss something great on BST when somebody buys it 5 minutes after it’s listed. Grrrrr !!

brianp-beme 06-23-2025 09:45 AM

Only true Net54 Junkies would check out this thread.

100%, except when your wife tells you to take out the garbage.

philliesfan 06-23-2025 01:59 PM

She did tell me to take out the garbage once......I picked her up and that is how the fight started.

534. Kiblitzer (Yiddish)
Someone who seemingly has a front row seat to every thread in the B/S/T, and rushes in to buy up everything before anyone else has a chance to even view it.


(For clarity, this is a portmanteau of "kibitz" and the football usage of "blitz." A member who doesn't get my humor thought I spelled something wrong when I originally posted it. Oy vey.) :D

almost embarrassing to answer honestly ! LOL

cliffyb 06-23-2025 02:33 PM

Every day, usually in the morning. The collectors’ knowledge and their collections are mind blowing. I see things I’ve never seen before and I dream of owning some of the items owned by members. I’ve been able to learn a lot too. Amazing website with amazingly knowledgeable people on here.
My wife even approves!!! 😀

DeanH3 06-23-2025 02:46 PM

I am definitely a Net54 junkie. I don't think there is any hope for me. So, I will just keep on being a junkie. :)

Six or eight times a day for the T206 B/S/T thread.
 
I’m Ed, and I don’t have a problem.

bmattioli 06-23-2025 06:00 PM

Summer once a day, Winter multiple times a day..

NiceDocter 06-23-2025 06:00 PM

Kind of like…..
 
Kind of like the guy who was addicted to drinking brake fluid says…… “Dont worry, I can stop any time I want! “. Ba da boom….
