Sitearm Madonna posted this in another thread:

"Fortunately I come from another (smaller) forum where my initial shyness to post was overcome. If you REALLY want more people to post here, there are "vays, dahling" to do this. But really, I think this is a great forum "as is"!"

That got me to thinking: What "vays"? Then I thought - well, provide a thread for it!

So here's your chance to introduce yourself if you are a lurker (or a semi-lurker), and then go happily back into lurking!

Is there pie here?

I was specifically told that there would be pie here, if I hung around long enough...

During the last company picnic they told me to wait in line and I would get a piece of pie, and then by the time I got to the front of the line they had ran entirely out of pie. And then I got no pie.

And, that's my stapler, too.

<eats the whole thing all at once and makes himself sick and gets a sugar-rush>

Is "lurking" in forums like "camping" in FPS games? And, in theory, couldn't I do both with a high-end enough system? I mean, one eye would be watching HalfLife2 and sitting crouched in a corner with a sniper rifle, and the other eye would be flaming rampantly in the forums? And, would this make me feel good about myself? Or just leave me feeling empty and unproductive? And, doesn't this post belong in the "questions only" post?

Good heavens! This went to the second page so fast I forgot I made the thread!

I guess lurkers would . . . rather lurk, lol.

I'm... not a lurker, but I about think of myself as one compared to some of the folks around.

Does never having anything meaningful or interesting to say count as lurking?

Did the forum create the lurkers or did the lurkers create the forums? :p

FINALLY a thread I feel comfortable contributing to!

HI! I'm Aimee Weber and I have always been too shy to post. I'm always afraid I will say the wrong thing so my fear has paralyzed me from posting but this is a great chance to break the ice and get to know you folks in the forums!

A little bit about me *blush* I like art, and wine, and greek food, and reading in the bathtub, and cutting the eyes out of photos of past boyfriends!

It's great meetin you all!
-Aimee :)
