Unhappy Stuck in Lurkdom? Need help getting out?

I see we are getting a lot of hits on the forum. People are reading what we are posting, but yet I feel like I am talking to myself most of the time.

Bacchus is a great guy and all, but I need more.

If you are reading this, get yourself out of lurkdom and hit that "Reply to Thread" button and make your presence known!!!!

I get lonely and need constant interaction.

A lot of that may have been me. I was at school, and for some reason I have trouble logging into the forums at school. So I kept reading things and trying to reply and it wouldn't let me. So I'm the 'lurker', but I'm home now so I will be replyin all ova the place!

Kathleen is talking about the "Currently active users" box on the front page of the forums. It shows a listing of who is on the site and what they are reading. Usually there are between 8 &10 "Guests" at any given time.

Some are bots (like google) and some are people, "lurking."

Well of course I wasn't speaking of you. Maybe the four of us should stage a fight and see who we can pull out of lurkdom. lol

I'm kidding of course.

I'm just impatient for all our friends to come and join in the discussions.

You're right, a debate or something would get things going. We have to stop agreeing with each other so much, lol. I used to post on an Mtv site and disagreed with about ninety percent of the posters in there, and I alllways got a lot of feedback and ruffled a few feathers. It was fun.
