Yeah, I lurked for a while.
Here's how it went:
First, I came for Zero Punctuation, then I started reading the articles (+ reading the comments, sometimes), then I created my account a while later, then I started commenting every now and then. I mostly just comment on threads I notice on the front page.

I signed up because I wantd to comment on something.

Also, sometimes I write out a reply then dont post it, which I kinda consider lurking

I lurked for a while before actually joining.

I can't remember the exact amount of time that I lurked for, but it was anywhere between 5 to 12 months.

I lurked for a long time; over a year to be exact before I joined. I remember many of the things that happened in 08 and early 09; seen users join and be banned, and seen the creation of new forums.

Yeah, I did. Dunno for how long though. Guess I still kinda do, as I seldom post where I feel I won't be giving any helpful insight (this is one of the few exceptions I guess).

Really just watched ZP, then noticed the hot topics section to the right of the video, started having a read. Wasn't until much later I found a thread in which I felt compelled to post in.

The thread was "Games you still haven't completed yet".

Been here for quite a while. Took forever to make an account, but so glad I did. I get to converse with some pretty intelligent people.

I still don't post too often, but I do read much of what flows through here. Pretty interesting stuff between the chaff.

I've had quite a bit of experience with forums in the past, so I had no problem jumping into things. I am quite selective with the threads I post in, though.
Pretty much this. At first I didn't come to the boards at all but once I did I started posting fairly quickly. I just don't post a lot.

I still tend to lurk though I'm posting more than I used to. Still not much though.

I honestly joined for Unforgotten Realms.
I figured out there were forums shortly after I saw (Comments: 40)

I didn't really post for a month or two..

Ah.. the good ol' days.

Back when we had Max, Sanity, and Indigo :)

I was introduced to the Escapist from the Mailbag Showdown episode of ZP. I signed up when I found something that I wanted to respond to.

I watched every ZP video up to the time, stayed for a few weeks, rewatched ZP, etc. I saw the forums, had previous experience in one and thought "hey, why not?
