LURK CHECK! Silent orgers please post here... ---
Are you unknown? Do you never post? Are you read-only? Please post a quick "hello" here and be counted...just curious who's lurking out there in the back row. Fear is the mind-killer. | |

Yes...now that I think about it, my post is somewhat self-contradictory...
Oh well... Fear is the mind-killer. | |

It's funny, I'm not so much of a lurker, (I've posted a modest 350 times), but everytime I do post, it either goes ignored, or somehow it spells the death of the forum.
It's not like all my posts are irrelevant or stupid either, just ignored. So in a way, I am a silent orger because "If an orger makes a post, but no one bothers to read it, does he make a sound?" A resounding no. Just watch this post die now. "Knowledge is preferable to ignorance. Better by far to embrace the hard truth than a reassuring faith.

A resounding no. Just watch this post die now. You have to post something really noticeable. I had the same problem, so I posted about being in love with thechronic. These people don't care if you've got something worthwhile to say. -------

I used to be a lurker...actually I found the forums to too busy and chaotic to actually follow. I think there's an actually a learning process to orging...
For one thing, you've got to post a lot before you get noticed. Until people see you several times you can't really expect them to remember you or know you. I've posted since before the black and purple org 1.0 (I'm sure I appear in at least one of the old PPML digests), but I did it so infrequently that I might as well have been a brand-new orger every single time as far as everyone else was concerned. Then I got sucked in...now all the Affirmative Action people want my head on a stick and wife is about to leave me...all because of this place! :LOL: Fear is the mind-killer. | |

Hello PurpleK, Savoirefaire, Sheeplikeone, and a2grafix...
(kinda ironic...we ask 'em to post and say 'hi', then pretty much ignore them...lol) | |

I dont know about lurking but I often post without wearing any pants.
Does that count? When I read about the evils of drinking, I gave up reading. | |
