Viewing vs Posting: A Lurkers Thread

i've noticed lately how many more people view debates vs how many actually POST in debates.

personally, i rarely view a thread unless i plan to post. do some people just like reading and learning or reading threads to be entertained? are there people whose posts you like reading more than others for some reason?

just curious to find out more about the . . . LURKERS out there (as well as the regulars who do this) who love to watch . . .

. . . and judge . . .

. . . then they start to whisper behind our backs until we can swear we hear their voices in our heads!!!!!! AAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

😄

I usually only read the threads I am debating in, unless it is a REALLY good one, but I just don't have the neccessary knowledge to debate in it. Of course I always read tourney stuff and such.

well i post sometimes but i guess not as much as others would post if they were on as much as me ! but i mainly just like reading and learning about characters (i try not to post unless i am sure i am right! or positive what i am saying is the truth) besides the heated debates are fun to read! i love to watch the debates between Mr. Master and nevrbeenwithagirl . . . i also like to watch all the guys in the AMC debate cuz there all good ! so am i considered a lurker or a regular (i mean i have a decent amount of posts)

I usually read a lot of threads, and don't end up posting in many.

I read a lot of threads

I post in as many as I can, a lot of the time I really don't have all that much to add, so I end up just reading through them.

Or I make retarted little posts like this one 😛

Lurkers are good. Learn debating habits, rules of etiquette, and general style of the forums/battles. And less work for me because they'll hopefully know the rules better when they do start posting.

I have neither the time nor the energy to sit there and WATCH a debate. I'll only view if I believe I'll post.

*lurks*

😖hifty:

I usually glance at a thread I am interested in and if I feel I can add somthing to the conversation, I post

Thats how I rollhorse

For me I'll click a thread if it interest me but if everyone is agreement with me or if I feel as if I have nothing to contribute than I won't bother posting. I don't click on threads to just watch

I lurked for months cuz I was so hated in the other forum. Someone said something crummy about Wonder Woman and I had to come out of hiding.

I usually only debate when a good character gets underplayed, or someone's giving The Flash a hell of a lot more credit than he deserves.
