CS.RIN.RU - Steam Underground Community

well heck...
i cant stand an hour not going on now...
i mean not just checking for ppl who posted on the off-topic section
but the whole forum as a whole

with my standalone doing great, and the amazing community that we have here
i practically spend every minute when im on the internet on this forum

i either have my laptop's google chrome running with this site on
or on my iPod Touch's mobile Safari

AND THIS IS ME ON HOLIDAY


how many hours do YOU spend on CS.RIN.RU?
looking forward to your replies

1-2 hours a day, I guess.

I moderated this forum.

There were times when I opened RIN more than 50 times a day and post writing time could add up to like 3 hours. Resulted in entire days just used to reading and posting here.
It's safe to say that I spent the major part of my freetime of the first three years since the join date doing stuff on or for RIN.
I have developed a "RIN bookmark click automatism". After all these years I still often catch myself having clicked the bookmark without planning to do so or better said even realizing it.
Nowadays, generally not that much, but it varies.

sometimes I click in the site (gatta love google chrome for having my top visited pages presented to me when I open a new tab ) and see there are no new posts and I feel... down lol
even though I'm not really a developer or a content-sharer or a mod, I try my best to answer peoples posts with what my ability allows me to do
I hope this forum will continue to grow, not just in members, but active and supportive contributors

I have no idea,3-5 hours probably.

This is the site I visit most often on the internet.I usually have scheduled tasks which I do on my PC,but I always find time for RIN.
I mainly check out the offtopic section because it's the only "sane" part of the forum for me.And usually the SCS,much less noobs there and if they asked nicely I can answer their questions.As for the main forum-screw it,kids expect every game to be cracked there,warez discussions and "plz crack thiz p|0X",no thank you.The Releases subforum can catch my eye sometimes but I generally ignore it.Tutorials-barely active,easy to keep track of and I also have my thread to look after there.Standalones-it's not my release so idc,if I want a Standalone I'd make my own with downloading the content from Steam servers with 1MB/s not some "free" file host run by jews.Developer section is for the developers obviously,and I'm not a dev nor am I interested in programming.Foreign languages section-could be useful for me to work on my German,but until there's a Bulgarian thread there don't call me,usually compatriots that reach this place know what they're looking for and know english in general,so that's not going to happen any time soon.

tl;dr
Read the first line

Nearly all of us don't have English as a native language,so we can't bother you for that!
If you really doubt your English,go here and ask in your OWN language!

99% of the stuff here has the password cs.rin.ru

I visit the forum 2-3 times a day or so,
Mostly i visit the off-topic section since the main forum became less interesting to me. I still visit the interesting topics that pop out once in a while.


And then, there's these assholes..

2 - 3 times per week nowadays. It used to be pretty exciting few years ago though, when I was involved in a few projects here. Countless hours were spent here.

I still recall that day when b00t and I spammed the whole forum and both made far over 100 posts on a single day ( iirc I made slightly over 150 )
Nowadays, not much. I don't need to read anymore topics about "how do I get game x" to work, I just read what interests me. So 10-20 minutes maybe.

Good times, good times.

I'm officially joining the "Nowadays, not so much" group. But seeing all the site's improvements now, I may stick around here a bit more.

My best post
We evolved from smart users with dumb terminals to dumb users with smart terminals.
I need updates for the following :

Surely there are much better things to do than rin, both online and offline.
Out of billions of sites and real life things to do, to spend so much time just on one site doing nothing other than ranting on it is a bit questionable about ones life.
