Because I always see 3 or 4 people viewing a board or thread but they don't seem to post.
And if you do read but never post, how come you don't join in?

Hush, any one can work a mouse, but a keyboard is an advanced and complicated piece of equipment requiring advanced training and years of practice. Some people just aren't ready yet for such a big step and commitment. Others, realizing the addicitve nature of posting but still drawn like a moth to flame try to deny their addiction by merely browsing. It is an act of great will power. Then, I'm told there are actually people out there who do not wish to post unless they have something of value to say. I find this a foreign concept, myself. Clearly if I'm on, my fingers are the chat group equiv of Shakira's hips.

And from the 15 veiws and 1 reply I'm guessing that, yes. There are people who read and never chat, lol. Fine! Be all quiet and mysterious! I'll be here when you guys finally break and give up the chat love. And believe you me, they all break eventually. Don't wish to post 'til they have something valuable to say... *bwahahaha!* Hell, if I did that I'd never post! Shakira's hips, eh? I've always thought of my fingers as the chat group equivalent of Michael Flatly's Riverdancing jelly legs. Sometimes I play irish music while I type, as well, just to get the juices goin.' (Not in this post, obviously...But in other ones )

(Not in this post, obviously...But in other ones ) Flatly? What an ego. Iliked the girl though. She looked like a petite, dang, what is her name? former wife of Tom Cruise? I'll stick with the Shakira analogy. My fingers can't Riverdance - not precise and delicate enough, more in your face and all over the place restless enthusiasm.

Maybe some people don't understand how the board works? I didn't at first, it took me a couple of weeks.

sometimes I just lurk when I don't have anything to contribute, but not very often, if i have something to say, I will say it, most likely in some long winded post that people get bored by.

I do both, post and read. It just depends on what the post is about & whether I have anything to say about it. If I do, I will say so, if not, I simply read it and move on. And other times, it just depends on my mood. I may have something to say but am just too d**n tired to type it out at the time I read it.

Yeah, you guys got a point. I only log in when I really want to answer to something. Maybe those "lurkers" are actually our girlfriends!

I'm just reading right now, but when I think of something to say, I'll post. Oh wait! I just posted. Bummer, and I didn't have anything to say.

See girls, everytime im on the bloddy net, no ones on. then I check to see the guest and perhaps they're like 5 guests. then I think, this is boring, no one says anything. they should say something or simply just bugger off

I only post when I am interested in the topic or I have something quasi-clean to say. I have to censor myself sometimes.....

I just tried to answer a post as a "guest" I couldn't do it. It gave me one of those questions where you have to repeat the numbers and letters to prove you can read or something! Then, I still couldn't post!! I had to log in , and try to dig up where I had wanted to post! It took me 5 F*CKING minutes to find it! What's up?

Michael Flatley earned that ego! Have you ever seen his feet when he riverdances? Of course you haven't! No one has! He moves so fast his feet are nothing but a blur. When he dances, the buzzing sound produced by his nimble little feeties is so powerful is shatters ear drums. Seriously. This guy is one bad motha. Is that a bolero jacket? Michael, you never disappoint.
