Greetings

Apparently I'm a "lurker"... which is funny because that's kinda how I partake in offline conversations as well (I'm a listener type unless drawn out.)

Offline it's "wow, you're a great listener!". Online it's "wow, you're an evil lurker!" Irony! ("Dontcha think" >.<)

Oh well *sulk*

You are an evil lurker no more!

Welcomes :smile:

What you say about your lurking habits sounds a lot like the way I see myself. I am always the quiet one in the room; I just sort of stay in the background and almost never say anything. But when I do, I get positive reactions. I am really trying to be different IRL.

Online, especially here in Adisc, I am sort of the same way. I post frequently in the greetings area, and lurk in some of the others. I've gotten positive feedback from some of my posts, and I try to contribute when I can. I've even developed a few online friendships outside (instant messaging). The chat room helps, too.

So, just keep looking around and you'll get more comfortable with your presence here.

I'm fairly quiet in RL, and a good listener.

But I do also like to express myself, and online forums are a great place to do it.

I know that participation makes any online forum more vibrant, but I've never understood why those who are uneasy about it, or without a real opinion, are automatically assigned a negative and sinister label. We don't all come to these forums for the same reasons.

So anyway, welcome.

Hey! Here's a new game: think of anything at all you would like to talk about,

diaper-related?
ADISC-related?
some video game, or computer issue?
Obama?
model rockets?
Afghani-Pakistani diplomatic relations and trade agreements?
How do I become a regular or use a certain feature, like what does an icon mean?
How the heck does someone get to 6 rep in 14 posts, while still a newbie?

ANYTHING!!

- And I will locate a thread that talks about it or find an expert who has the answers you seek or someone into chatting with you about 67 Mustangs, the care and maintenance of plastic pants, how the rep system works, good memes and bad memes, - whatever takes your fancy.

And I can even tell you how you yourself can locate the goodies hidden in out of the way spots on ADISC!!

And not only me, but anyone should feel encouraged to help out with this guy's queries: EVEN FELLOW-NEWBIES!!
