My scanner stays on all the time. If I'm online when I hear something come across, I'll post. If not, I don't.

How do you know the OP was just "lingering" around waiting to hear something on the scannee? Maybe he or she was just reading on Gowilkes when they heard it come across.

People post things that come across the scanner pretty often. If you don't want to know about it keep scrolling.

Like someone else said, if it weren't for people posting somethings on GW, we would never even know avout it.

Without GoWilkes we wouldn't know half the news, especially on week ends.

People on GoWilkes always report the news first. The newspaper and TV stations get their stories from here.


You heard it on GoWilkes first... Now if the scanner ears could get paid for the editorial contributions.

If that's what makes some people "happy" and helps them feel useful, in a way, so be it. I don't see how anyone has the time or patience to just linger around and listen to those things, but to each their own.

It's like people are just sitting around waiting for something to happen so they can talk about it on here. it must make them feel like news reporters or something
