How long do you wait to check for answers ?

Question

Are you patient or do you keep checking them to see when you get the first one ?

Answer 1

i look out for the first one - to check it posted ok and hasn't gone off into the ether - then I'll check to select the best answer...sometimes it doesn't let me select cos even though it is 4 hours - yahoo clings onto it

Answer 2

I am patient. I check the box to be notified by mail when I get an answer. When I don't hear the notification anymore, then I will check.

Answer 3

well sometimes when i am anxious about a question that i've asked i check every few minutes after i have posted up to about 15mins

its wierd though because i have found after 15 mins people stop posting, Like the other i checked my profile and the same answers were there and i was like "COME ON"

Answer 4

I'm pretty anal about it. I'll check, and recheck, and recheck. Even after 15 minutes I'll keep rechecking because I know I have regulars like you and White that will go through my questions when they log on. It's kind of sad.

Answer 5

I usually check the next day.

Answer 6

approximately 30 seconds. I'm impatient when it comes to checking answers.

Answer 7

I get a thrill for every one so pretty often i check

Answer 8

I don't check, I have it email me to let me know when I get a response

Answer 9

after i ask im straight back into answering and just before i turn off i'll check :)

Answer 10

it could take as long as some one would see and take interest about that topic. so it can happen that no one may want to talk about that topic, and so no answer at all.
