Taylorism & Productivity...

[GenghisK]

I just wonder. I noticed several people (I should say almost everybody ) go on the forum by work time. So what about your productivity?
Me? From 0 to -100 !lol! I can't work for 30 minutes without going back and check the new posts. Who did "better"? Perhaps it'd be hard to work less than I do.
This forum is as addictive as the Civ game itself...

Tell me about it, I have been in work for two hours and haven't done anything yet. I feel the sack coming on.

Sure, because you're in UK like me too.

US people are supposed to work a little (little little littel

) bit more...

Oops, and BTW, I like your knickname too, Mongol Horde. Sure it's your destiny to be under my orders, me, Genghis K.

No doubt about GenghisK's negative productivity, as one runs into this great name several times in every thread...

But GK is but a mere Phalanx. At the moment he is just practicing his omnipresence. He has some way to go before he approaches the glorious ranks of the Archers and Knights.

GK: Did you get my PM?

Apparently, I'm quite talkative indeed. I'd better slown down or this forum will be flooded

Sorry Stormerne but what's a PM?

I believe you're responsible for 50 percent of the posts in this forum (counting mine)

I'll answer this question for Stormerne. A PM is a Private Message. There is a thing called Inbox at the bottom of the main page, and when you open it you see your Private Messages. The icon PM on top of every post allows you to send these.

Yeah. I think the people here aren't very productive....

Oh, man don't even get me started. I don't even start ANYTHING remotely productive until about 10:00 because I have to see what's been written overnight. Then, heaven forbid that there are some succession game reports. I just sit back and take those in. The people on this forum are very good at embellishing their stories and I find them all very entertaining.

Of course, I have to recheck everything around lunchtime. And then right after lunch before I start up again. Then several times in the afternoon. Then around 4:00 I figure that the day's pretty much done and I'll just write and read as much as possible.

Won't be getting any "employee of the month" awards anytime soon

Me and Kev must have been seperated at birth, because the description of his day sounds exactly like mine

I found this forum just last month, and I think I've spent 3-4 hours every day here since then... I don't work, but it really ruins my studies.

3-4 hours only?

You're not worthy enough to deserve being member of that forum

You must spend at least 90% time of your working day here

That's what I do, as you can notice by the amount of my posts... I'm very productive, you know, but not at work, just here

Ditto, ditto and er ditto. F*&k we are sad. Do you ever think to yourself, I could be doing something much more worthwhile but then just keep coming back and back.

 

[vladmir_illych_lenin]

Wow you guys SUCK! Even I only spend an hour or so on here! But I understand, since you phalanxes and archers have no way to catch up to me as I'm posting my 65th post today! Mwahahahahahahahaaaaaaaa!

And this is NOT spam!
So far today, I had nothing to do, so I spent 3 hours on here. Sad, isn't it?

 

[Ecco]

Haha.

I found this place a month ago, and though i dont post that much, i read a lot...
I do have to admit that i spend no more than an hour each day

No, it's not spam. <FONT size="1">It's only...</FONT s> <FONT size="10">forum pollution!</FONT s>

Even I (very famous for spamming in French with Circee. Right Circee

) only post 20 posts per day. Because I still try to respect the poor guys such as Thunderfall and his moderators who'll have to read everything...

[vladmir_illych_lenin]

20 posts per day? Nah, no way! You'd be a knight by now

Anyways, back on topic.

Nobody should spend this much time on a forum. If you wanted to have a good time talking to people, go to a bar. Isn't it more entertaining when talking in realtime? Why do people here prefer forums rather than chatrooms?

 

[GenghisK]

A knight with 20 post/day? That's impossible

BTW, I've just had a chat with Circee, Kira and Az, when my f*** pc crashed... If you want a chat now... And I usually go to some bars too...

Sheesh, my crummy, 5 or 6 posts every other day can't compete with you guys. I probably only spend about two hours of my work day on this site. I guess that Puritanical streak my parents inflicted on me is just too strong. What's a CIVer to do?
