I've been lacking time to give in-depth replies to some of the posts I read, so I'm steadily becoming a bigger lurker. If I can't contribute something at least a tiny bit meaningful, I'll just pass it over. Also, I abide by a "don't post when angry" rule, so sometimes, when I see posts so full so ignorance and disrespect, it just irks, and I'll close the tab before I do any damage. ^_^
Still try to post from time to time, though, of course, but the sheer amount of posts that come through here is staggering, and I just don't have the time and energy to keep up.

I take the approach, "If you don't have anything to say/write, stop talking/writing." So I'll check a few threads, see what a few people have talked about (up to around the second page) and if I feel my opinion has been stated enough times then I am just wasting space by saying, "I agree with posters X, Y and Z." Otherwise it might be a topic that I really do not have much input because I do not know it in and out. So I'll read other people's opinions so I can understand the concept better.
I see what you did there. I see what you did. *Claps*poiumty said:I prefer to remain a Hydralisk.
I lurk a lot, which is better than repeating what someone said or saying something boring and inconsequential. I don't consider it a bad thing.
As a lurker I tend to hide underground around choke points and take great joy in slaughtering huge numbers of marines and zerglings. Mineral fields are fun to burrow behind as well.
I lurk alot. Until something interesting comes along, or im sufficiently bored.

I do it all the time. Sometimes your just interested in hearing other peoples opinions without giving your own.
I don't lurk. I have this annoying habit of shooting off my opinion to anyone who might listen. In here and in real life.
I literally kind of dislike myself for how much i like talking about my opinions
But there, I did it again

God no. This is me we're talking about. I can't shut up. Sure, there are plenty of times where I backclick on a post when I think it's not that great, or just don't have much to say that day, but it feels like I'm always posting.
I'm one of those people where, if I'm not posting, it's because I'm not online, or I'm not visiting the site at that time.

I almost always lurk, on most forums I read. Even on the Escapist, I'm here mostly for the videos.
It just seems like anything I would like to say, has already been said, and I don't feel any need to post it again. I mean, who actually reads the whole X amount of pages in a thread? so anything I post would probably go unnoticed anyway.
