    I like to read all the posts on Prius Chat, but it has become so big that I just can't keep up. I know that there are numerous Chatters that not only use this site, but posts on other sites. I don't know how they do it. If I miss just one day, I can't keep up. I must be a wimp chatter, whereas ya'll are super chatters. I'm going to try to Cold Turkey my addiction for seven days. I hope they don't make me where one of those funny white jackets’s with the long sleeves’, again. :eek:

    You're telling me? From the time I stop in the evening to when I get to work 'just to check in' there are three pages of new posts. On the other hand, I've become an effective skimmer.

    mmhmm. skip a day and I have 5 pages to read but yeah, you just gotta filter out what you wanna read and what you don't. I think the new "View New Posts" search should help you out better.

    Yea, and even worse, if you think a post wont be ineteresting, and skip it- then it keeps showing up as more people comment, by the time you decide to open the post- there are over 10 pages to read through! It's exhausting, I don't know how we have time to work! HAHA

    I try to keep my friends posted on some of the interesting topics on here, and they all roll their eyes and say "Isn't that website supposed to be about the Prius?"

    They don't really know how sick we are, unless they buy one! muahaha

    The website is about the Prius? OK, that explains why everyone has a little picture of a Prius next to their post :rolleyes:

    There will be backlash of course. Eventually, people will stop coming because it's too crowded. :D

    Notice you said "little" picture. :)

    Just be glad you don't have to administrate it - thank goodness for Tony and Evan!

    Yes, and all the excitement over this little fad item called the Prius will also peter out eventually also. :)

    I agree that with out the help of the moderators and Danny,there would be no order. And I am also one of those that can't keep up. It was ok a year ago,but now, :unsure: . And it doesn't help that my own life seems more hectic. I just do what I can and hope I don't miss out on to much, :)

    Tell me your troubles. It says there are 419 pages since my last visit. I guess I've been out of the car market for a bit...

    Perhaps it needs tighter moderating to filter out a lot of the junk.
