who are these lurkers?

schizophrenicroom · 12.22.2006, 01:34 AM

who the hell are the 86-or-so lurkers? they need to post. who the fuck just sits here, unregistered, reading? in this section alone there's 42.

Inhuman · 12.22.2006, 01:42 AM

91 now. That's rather surprising! You would think that there would be a lot more members than lurks. I hate going into interesting forums without posting unless there's tonnes of hatin' going on, and I find this board is pretty good in regards to courtesy.

schizophrenicroom · 12.22.2006, 01:47 AM

yeah, most of us are nice. i hate that too. i would register on the electrical audio forums or whatever, but they all seem like massive assholes.

Yeah, one of the other Message Boards I'm registered to is based off my city's music scene (www.punkottawa.com) but the posters there are really immature and terribly rude. They're also filled with these:

Emo is undoubtedly the shitiest trend in alternative rock history. Its the posers home. rich kids try to look poor, with their neatly ripped jeans. Spoiled upper class brats who have everything easy, wining about depression, and how no-one loves them. and then worst of all, they claim to be alternative, yet every one of those fuckers looks indentical. Emo isnt alternative it plays on fuckin Mtv, for shits sake. all these emo kids and emo bands need to go fuck themselves. please tell me you guys agree.

they're either pedofiles, looking for innocent children, or theyre just gay

pokkeherrie · 12.22.2006, 06:42 AM

Heh, in the other forum I used to regulary part-take in, of the 120 regulars in on of the sub forums, there was about 800 lurkers. Ridiculous.

It's at it's peak during the holidays, or in this one case, eve night of the Oscars. I can remember some of the regulars making a temporary sticky thread calling out the 'guests' to come and post. Of the 800 or so lurkers, they managed to get about half a dozen to come and talk.

king_buzzo · 12.22.2006, 11:44 AM

lurkers are just another term for homosexuals

schizophrenicroom · 12.22.2006, 12:14 PM

i kinda was too, snake. then once that "sonic youth" thread started i got a little more social.

The EA boards are endlessly amusing. I would register, but I really do not want to belong to another messageboard.

Trasher02 · 12.22.2006, 12:49 PM

I'm on three other boards on which I don't post much really.
I just say some random shit on it when I'm drunk, this board is by far my favorite.

schizophrenicroom · 12.22.2006, 03:43 PM

i'm in a livejournal community that sort of reminds me of this place, but there's not as many nice people. everyone's elitist and has been a member for years and years, and i feel like a dumb noob whenever i post.
