How long did you lurk/ creep?

[iLazy]

So, after a year of sitting on the Escapist porch, I've decided to enter the house. Honestly, I don't know why it took me so long to join but it's a slow Saturday and I had nothing to do :/

My question is this; How long did you creep around the Escapist before making an account?

I apologize if this has been done before, but I'm curious.

I think like 2 years for me, I never really posted on forums much before here.

 

[Esotera]

I think about three or four months, coincidentally the same amount of time this account has been registered. Welcome to your new addiction.

Not long at all, I watched all the zero punctuations that were out, which weren't that many.

And then I noticed the threads, and I felt compelled to answer ALL OF THEM!
As they were all about surviving zombie apocalypses.

It's 'lurk', not 'creep'.


I lurked for around 2 years before I joined.

I think I lurked for a year, I don't remember.

I lurked probably about 8 months before I finally joined the forums. Enjoy being here, too, even if I don't comment that often.

Months. I would pretty much just swing on in and read threads while waiting for videos to load.

Then I joined and made a giant ass of myself pretty much instantly.

I don't what would b defined as lurking, I saw threads on the side bar when I watched Zero Punctuation about 2 years ago, one specific thread caught my eye and I created a account then, but I never actually took the time to scope out the forums.

Yeah, the topic title certainly caught my attention though.

As for me, I don't recall how long I was coming to the escapist prior to joining... 2 years maybe? Probably less though.

hmmmm about 1-2 weeks

 

[Henkie36]

Well, I watched ZP for a while, then I didn't go back for over three years, and when I did, I waited for nearly three months before I made an account.

 

[CaptainKoala]

Like 3-4 months, then I joined and I love it here.

 

[Not-here-anymore]

Not long, really. A friend showed me a couple of ZP videos, then I stumbled across a couple of other shows, then saw something interesting looking in the forum sidebar. Couple of weeks maybe?

 

[iLazy]

Eh, I'm used to using creep to describe lurking. Not too sure why, but I'll add it to the title!

 

[Phlakes]

A pretty long time. I came about when ZP started but I wasn't much of an internet user back then.

 

[Rawne1980]

Lurked for a loooong time.

Only recently made an account but have been visiting Escapist for years.

 

[Jedamethis]

Not long. I don't know why...

But hi there! Stay out of the basement, and it'll stay out of you.

 

[Sizzle Montyjing]

I immediately thought of this.

But i lurked for about a year or two (put it at a year and a half)
before finally joining.
But i'm glad i joined now.

 

[franconbean]

i lurked the forum untill the point came when i had something interesting/constructive to add to a topic. So, about 2 weeks after joining i think.
