Feeling the Urgency
« on: October 27, 2020, 02:09:54 pm »
It's the end of the month.  Does anyone else feel the old, familiar urgency to complete thirty posts?  I've been doing this for so many years that I continue to feel the need to have all my ducks in a row.  Old habits die hard!  Or am I just extremely optimistic?

Haha, yeah, I get what you mean. I feel that way too. Even though we don't know if we'll ever be paid another forum bonus again, I'm trying to reach 30 posts to submit it.

I'm still striving for the 30 posts, but I'm a little behind.

I still post 30 plus times and I still submit my posts. I submitted for this month about a week ago.  Old habits do die hard but hope springs eternal as well.

I have still been getting to 30 posts, but I am behind this month. I am not sure if I should continue to make sure that I get to 30 posts each month. Since there are a few days left in the month, I will probably make the effort to get them posted.

I still do the 30 posts a month, though deep down I know these bonuses won't be paid out.

Yes I'm trying to do 30 wonder if they'll pay. It's been since June so that is 5 months or 15.00. Still find it easy to do  30 a month mostly.

I don't usually feel any urgency, pstovall, since I have so much in my head that I have to get out. I like reading the posts and answering them as well and get done early in the month.  :moneymouth:

Then I keep posting; to the chagrin of some, I'm sure.  :confused1:

I don't have to try, it just happens naturally.

Well they already owe most people 15.00 for 5 months. May try one more month.

No.  I always have 30 in way before the end of the month. And now that we are not being paid for posting I am guessing a lot of people won't care enough to post any longer.

I LIKE posting.  I would never quit just because I'm not getting paid.  Yes, it takes extra time to come here and post, but I've learned a lot from others' experiences, and I feel like I've gotten to know some of my fellow members that otherwise, I would have never met. It gives an extra warmth to the site.
