I believe all Lurkers have the right to lurk. I am a man of the people, for the people.

This is not a "start posting or get the hell out of here and die" post, this is more of a "don't be shy, although we are blunt, we are friendly, don't be scared" kinda post.

Just started posting after lurking for a while. Probably will post some grief about losing my stack everytime I match a pair on the board on the flop. Taken out by boats mostly. Guess I should stop slow playing them. Anyway, lurkers can turn into posters. I could be the poster child for losing with sets! Can't bitch too much though I turned $25 into $1K in about 3 months now, partially thanks to the good advice I get here.

Will there be Lurkers in Starcraft 2, Fnord?

Rilla feels threatened that someone will get a royal flush before him.

Unfortunately quite a few of the 0 post members are spammers who just register in order to put their website in their profile for the Google spiders.

i lurked a while too.. but i wasnt a registered user.. does that mean i wasnt really a lurker?? seems kinda pointless to register and not post anything, its not like you gain access to anything extra by registering

A lot of lurkers register so they get a cookie and know which posts are new.
But a lot of registered members haven't logged in in a long time, and it's those members I will be deleting.

I joined a long ass time ago on the original forums and had probably 2 posts on there, then just came back and lurked for awhile more then finally started my attempt to post more and not suck at poker.
...and also advertise pirate jokes as a whole...

I log on and read the posts on this site most every day. I'm even going to watch gabe and rilla battle it out today...
I just never end up posting much  .
I love this site because its a constant treasure trove of information. I enjoy reading hand histories and strategies and the like, but as a relatively newbie poker player I don't have much of value to contribute in the ways of poker knowledge or wisdom...
So I often just end up reading and enjoying.
