Hah! I win, sucker!

And I tend to lurk because the majority of the time, whatever I have to say has already been said by at least one other person. If I don't feel I have anything to contribute to the conversation, I usually don't even bother.

Hah! Beware my catch rate of 3!
My moveset is recover, roar, splash, and explosion, and I used pokesav to give myself Wonder Guard as an ability.

Yep, I'm a massive Lurker - I've been visiting the escapist frequently for nearly 3 years...

Meh, sometimes. If I have nothing to add, I say nothing. But usually if I'm bothering to view the thread, I will post.

Are you comparing me to this?

Oh you meant the other kind of lurker.
I lurk the SomethingAwful forums, and sometimes here when I simply can't be bothered to write something.

I lurk far more often now than I did before.

After I post something, no matter how much time passes, I generally don't like to repeat it.

I lurk a lot less than i used to, sometimes i just can't be bothered to post and end up just lurking a couple of interesting threads

I am such a lurker. But for a class I have to join and participate in an online community then 'reflect upon my experience'. Thus the occasional responding to threads.

Well, I try not to comment redundantly, and don't arrive on the forum at times when new threads tend to be started, so my post count's not as high as it would be.

I'm so good at lurking, I've managed to get a post count into the thousands, without anyone knowing who I am. :p
I actually started posting more often late 2009, so for most of that year I just lurked with this account.
You must be Future Dave then.
I'm afraid I'm either unaware or can't recall who that is.
It is both you. And I. IN HARMONY AS ONE! (dramatic cue)

So for the four people who can actually remember who I am, you probably know I'm a huuuuge Lurker. I hate it. So I'm trying to break out of the habit!

Enough about me though, what about you Escapees? How often do you Lurk? How do you feel about Lurking?
are you kidding?

i've been here for an extra year and i only have 200+ more posts

Edit: or 500... damn when did i get 1300?!
Well I didn't really lurk for the first 400 or so haha

I lurk occasionally, but I still post a healthy amount too. I used to lurk more, but I post pretty often now for some reason.

I was a long-time lurker (didn't even have an account on the forums) but after seeing a thread I wanted to give my own two cents on something. So now, I suppose I am not a lurker. I may go back to my corner though.
