Lowbottom's post got me thinking.


Jun 7, 2016, 3:23 PM

How many true lurkers do you think the lunge has? Like people just sit here and read what we say all day but never say a word?

Are we really that entertaining to just lurk? I feel like participation makes it more fun.

then a lurker over here. then lurking got the best of me and you are right, participating is half the fun.

being good at it is the other half, and i haven't gotten there yet.

your post, hit the TU, it tacked on another view. Then went back to you post to reply and ticked on another view. And I think the bozos who use a topic view that isn't "tree view" add views when they scroll it.

I agree with Aero that there are probably a lot less now


Jun 7, 2016, 3:27 PM

that LBOD's are a little more scarce, but there are also plenty of fun poop jokes and such that could likely keep people entertained. I feel like we don't always encourage participation when a lurker sees a newcomer constantly #### on. aka H8n and FBcoach

That said, FBcoach and H8n both dish it as well as take it, and I'm looking forward to meeting both of 'em at the tailgate sometime. We've had plenty turn tail and run. You stay in the game and get dirty with us, you have my respect.

Jun 7, 2016, 3:48 PM

seat because he was far too drunk to drive anywhere? Evidentially, Jesus Christ himself could not make him sit in the back seat of his own truck. That was definitely one of the top 3 dumbest arguments I've ever had in my life.

If I'm remembering correctly, it only got worse from there. There was crying, yelling, unintelligible gargling noises...awful. Not really expecting that crowd to make it to too many games this year though.

just depends. I don't get to read at work due to work. :)

On a day off or if I am working at home - which is rare, I might make a comment or two.

I find it relaxing to read - kind of stress relief. Much better than reading FB posts. :)

I can only read at work on my phone while I'm on the #######, and I have a 2 month old at home. First kid. I can barely find time to have a beer everyday.

And a lot of stuff on here is pretty hilarious. So, there are probably more lurkers than one would think (assuming that there are enough abnormal people on TNet who can stomach the colorful/delightful dialog that abounds each day).

flag link military_tech thumb_downthumb_up

I pretty much exclusively lurk


Jun 7, 2016, 9:41 PM

I'm desperate for acceptance and the fear of rejection is too great.

Also I don't feel like I have time to get into the conversation beyond adding a comment or two that add nothing to the conversation.

I just like to see what the younger generation(s) of tigers are up to. Good to see that sanity hasn't infected the rank and file. Guess fart jokes and gross innuendos never go out of style, eh. And bewbs. Bewbs are timeless, too.
