Clear Your Lurker Flag Here

[Gigabyte]

I mostly lurk these days. I don't think anybody cares.

[AdamL]

I am a notorious lurker...

[AdamL]

... but I have "un-lurked" or "de-lurked" or maybe even "dis-lurked" today!

[AdamL]

which one is it?

[Selenite]

which one is it?

Basically, you're shirking your lurking.

[Whirlpool]

I'm a bonafide Lurker ... is that bad ?

[Eta C]

Been a while. Married life keeps one busy. Also, the quality of the ATM and CT proponents has dropped off a bit from the old Iron sun & plasma universe days. Ah well.

[streather]

I've been lurking and not commenting for far too long...

my 5th post. i moved to australia a few years ago (from germany) in order to marry. australia is stunningly beautiful, folks. come and visit! you won't regret it. and aussies are usually quite friendly and relaxed. i like 'em!

[Paspook]

I'm a lurker that enjoys reading the boards. =)

A question for other lurkers, how many posts do you compose each day, that you subsequently abandon? I average about two or three. I think "why did I bother to type that up, I wouldn't even bother to read it?", and finally click "New Posts". I think a psychological study of lurker behavior would be fascinating .

I do the samething as well.

Yep, two already this morning for me, it's only a matter of time until the cat jumps up and bumps the mouse to press the "Submit Reply" button on a post I was about to abandon . "The cat made me do it, honest, I'm still a real lurker".

I abandon about half the things I write and regret about half the things I do post because of the responses I get .....or because I got no responses.

Yep, it's the pre-post jitters.

*crickets*

You're right, that's the noise.

To be honest, since I made that post above a few days back, I've actually hit the right button a few times. That's when those pesky insects started chirping. It is as I thought, a lot of "why'd I say that".

[Laguna]

I have been away for far too long...

[bassguy61]

Unlurking... Hopefully...

[Flat Handle]

Maybe I can use this to get out of my moderation jail.

[Flat Handle]

I don't know what the cut off is, but it's more than eleven.

[Eta C]

I'm browsing by from time to time, but don't really have the time to post much anymore. Still, something's bound to come up that piques my interest (or indignation).

[Zachary]

lurk blurk

[SKY]

Wow...This place looks different.

[TommyD]

Ok, done lurking now.

[emarkp]

lurka lurk

[Pinemarten]

I am not lurking. I just popped back to seek wisdom on a query that I hope can be answered adequately by wise members here.

[Zentisan]

Uh-hh?? Stumbled back in after long wandering years.... learned coupla things:
1. carve your password on stone OR
2. make it something not easy to remember but HARD to forget.

[StellaBarnardi]

But what if you like to read but can't think of anything to write? I'm here to learn. Can I do that first, at least?
