What to expect in your first fortnight in Reading

The first two weeks in Reading are calibration rather than results. Filters need widening for Reading, the opener usually needs a rewrite, and the photo set almost always needs one more current picture. Members who change one thing at a time in Reading work out what actually moved the needle.

Timing and activity in Reading

Activity in Reading is not evenly spread across the week. Weekday evenings and Sunday afternoons are consistently the busiest windows members in United Kingdom report, and logging in only at one time of day gives a misleading picture of how busy Reading really is.
