Hey Lurkers!!!
 
Hey guys, the board has been kind of dead recently, but I notice on each thread that there are a lot of views.

Obviously we have a lot of lurkers here. A lurker is defined by wikipedia as: "In Internet culture, a lurker is a person who reads discussions on a message board, newsgroup, chatroom or other interactive system, but rarely participates."

So if there are any "lurkers" out there, don't be afraid to post! I know you are out there, when a new thread has 60 views but only 3 responses, it's obvious.

We want to hear from you, your experiences, suggestions and ideas.

It's not always just lurkers. I read the thread the first time, but I didn't reply because it's in a GLO forum. I don't always reply to threads I read because either I have nothing to add that hasn't already been said or the topic was actually different then what I thought the thread would be about (or the topic has severely modulated).

ETA: If you'd rather I add something to every thread I read regardless of how asinine, I could do that, but I don't really think it would be widely appreciated.

I guess I'm becoming a lurker. I check the boards all the time, but I only post if I have something to add.

It's nice for people to add thei $.02 in.

We have had a lot of threads that have gone on for numerous pages, but recently, nothing has even come close.

This board is going to die pretty soon if every post only has 2-5 replies.

So get those keyboards working again and start typing!!!
