I can't remember how long I've been lurking here now.. I didn't register until after a very long time. (Was Arttemis who made a post, telling all lurkers to reply I think..) But I known I've been around since before summer 2k. I remember reading here that Gucomics would start soon.. I remember those really small sigpics.. and when Drysart made so we could "cheat" and get in larger ones. And Jete was the local artist who had drawn sigpics for several people )
I remember when Mortious got his buckethead title, and he didn't get angry at all When Lyinar first came to the boards, joking about her big club, and Solstyce said in her first(?) post.. "shes cool, she actually tried to roleplay in Mirc"
When I came, Darrok was already an oldschool perma-newbie with 1 post And he had that picture with boobies *giggles*
Ocy's bar was still on it's first or 2nd page.

All poor newbies who came to the board got beaten... but since some never returned after that, people started to say, I prostest, when the newbie-bashing started. Some people liked having new folks around, some wanted the forum to just go back as it was.. I guess this was one of the reasons I stayed lurking. I'm not a fighter, and even if I was lurking, all those fights we had a long time ago was affecting me too in some way..

Porncrest was fun So was the first xmas with everyone stealing Lyinars hat And even I got a title after one or two posts.. That was an honour back then

The last thing I want to say is.... I don't have a clue why I'm posting this I guess 1 & 1/2, maybe 2 years of lurking has made me want to come out in the light, even just for a minute. And to make everyone realise.. There are still lurkers out there!

You should post more often. We don't bite.

Much.

What are you talking about? I bite all the time.

Hey, kickass! I got some recognition!

Granted, it was for something I didn't do...

Heh. You know, the surgeon general has recently stated that posting still doesn't affect your health.

Now that is an impressive lurker...
