March 13, 201016 yr I've been looking through the site logs a bit and we have a good number of people who log in but never post. How about some of you lurkers stop by and say "Hi"? We can't be *that* scary.
March 13, 201016 yr To be honest, it's a little intimidating. There seem to be a group of "core" users I see in all the forums I read, and when I post it gets ignored, or ends the discussion. Not a bad thing really, seems common on all the boards I read...

March 13, 201016 yr It's always nice hearing from other people besides the usual members who post, because then it gives a fresh view on a topic than what we already expect to read.

Thats why I was put on double secret suspension ..... because I had a fresh view and you guys didn't want to hear it. I still think Bob Lutz has more faces then the man of a 1,000 faces.

Don't be a jerk (which you haven't been for the most part since you got back) and be respectful and everything's cool.

March 15, 201016 yr O, it was "fresh" alright.... Don't worry, he kinda grows on ya.... and not about to change ...........
March 15, 201016 yr and not about to change ........... You wont change even when you get that not so fresh feeling?
March 15, 201016 yr You wont change even when you get that not so fresh feeling? Just jump in the pool ... then sun dry
March 16, 201016 yr C&G's the homepage for the computer, i just been busy with the house and work lately, but i gave $12 so does that make me a premium lurker? heheheh

Not a bad thing really, seems common on all the boards I read... In total agreement!! You have no idea. That is why I only post the news and do not say much. What is worse when people attack something you say and really in all honesty, they cannot speak for you, but for some odd reason they think they can and think they are so right and they are not.. It happened to me.

Not a bad thing really, seems common on all the boards I read... I used to feel like my posts would dead end too. The more you post, the less likely they are going to dead end. At least, that is what I have learned.
March 16, 201016 yr Here I thought I was the only "thread killer." I probably count as a lurker nowadays.
March 16, 201016 yr To be fair to C&G, we have a much more engaged moderating team these days. "engaged" to each other?
March 16, 201016 yr "engaged" to each other? Nope, not engaged to anybody on here either. Nice try though.
March 17, 201016 yr I lurk because I'm too lazy to sign in. I lurk because no one misses me. Boo. Hoo. Plus, threads usually die or go awry when I post in them. I hex threads. I just now hexed this one.

March 18, 201016 yr Yeah, I've noticed some of the more active people are no longer around, and some non-core people too that posted from time-to-time have disappeared. Come back - you're all missed!!
March 18, 201016 yr you don't know who you're missing... your right ........... so I don't miss them Edited March 18, 201016 yr by RjION
March 19, 201016 yr Gee, I have not a clue. Really? Well, I'm not going to let the cat out of the bag...
March 19, 201016 yr Really? Well, I'm not going to let the cat out of the bag... The bag is plastic. I can see the cat through it.
March 19, 201016 yr If the cats in a plactic bag, its probably dead. Unless it can breath carbon dioxide, then its a tree-cat.
March 19, 201016 yr If the cats in a plactic bag, its probably dead. Unless it can breath carbon dioxide, then its a tree-cat. Probably? I don't think the word "probably" factors here. I found a tree-cat. It's nothing like you described. His name is Travis.
March 19, 201016 yr I can think of someone I dont miss. Bet you can guess who it is. LeeRon? You're probably referring to a more current member with an alphanumeric name.
March 19, 201016 yr LeeRon? You're probably referring to a more current member with an alphanumeric name. LeeRon...now there is a name from back in the day. At least he didn't go on long diatribes about hardtops and whatnot.
