You're posting...and there they are watching every word...always watching. There could be thousands or even millions of them...just hanging on the words we all type. :P Imagine if all the lurkers actually posted? How many posts would we have in OT? Would it implode? :o
The only thing that's odd is all those people that are interested enough to read the threads but don't feeling like adding anything themselves. Pirate700
Yeh I was thinking about it the other day when someone said they'd lurked for ages but never posted. Why?! If you're reading something surely you have an opinion on it? Then get typing! :)
Meh, it is kind of creepy I guess; I'm not really bothered by it though... I think the community is big enough without new posters joining, anyway. :x We should lock the door from those durned outsiders! :twisted:

... I don't think you understand.
I was a lurker for about a year or two before I created an account.
I had an opinion and really wanted to post it. Problem was that I had to go through the hastle of creating an account...
Eh laziness, not really having anything worth contributing, forgetting the point of what I was typing or just giving up half way through because of it just being too dam long are all the reasons I don't post more. I like to think though because of this when I do post it is actually a contribution and not just like "yeah I like .... its awesome".
Also though many a times with my longer more thought out posts people just can't be asked to read you know? You make the post and you get a bunch of half ass comments which are the usual counter they'd expect to use for the argument rather than actually reading the post and noticing I actually covered that. I don't care if you can't be asked to read the post, fair enough I'm sure I would have done the same thing but at least don't be an ***.
Are you discriminating against the lurkers? You know, it wasn't their choice to be this way!

Lies! They chose to be this way when they entered the matrix!
I represent several lurkers. *hands you card*. I am more than willing to take you to court if you do not put an end to these shenanigans! Cease and desist!
It makes sense why they're here though. All my posts side-splittingly funny, and they come to read all of the laugh out loud moments from yours truly...

Eh, I think those people just like to gain insight, like #5, still alive....MORE INPUT.
