Calling all 'Lurkers'

edited January 2012 in The bottom bracket
Checking on one of my threads the other day, there were no replies but over 200 views (of course I'm not saying it was worth replying to, it was one of my crappier posts :lol: ). But it's got me thinking, over 200 views and a lot, lot less that actually post, so there must be an army of lurkers out there.

So my mission for today is to get a lurker to reply to this post, amongst the other sh!te it's bound to attract from you lot. :roll: :lol:

    Yep, I'm owning up to being a lurker, but then i'm a great believer in if youve got nothing to say then say nothing. :D

    Nah.
    While (PageCount < 2)
    {
       If (MyThoughtsExactly != beenPosted)
          {
             Me.Sleep(6000);
          }
          Else
          {
             int goOnThen = postRamblingOpinion();
             break;
          }
    }

    Page count could be an optional param but it isnt always a decisive field

    Forgot to check to see if the 'MyThoughts' had already been posted

    You could always have something along the lines of

    NotifyAggieBoy(MyThoughts) as well

    }
    

    I quite agree with
    While (PageCount < 2)
    
    I am something of a lurker (on these forums) as I am a newbie to cycling and enjoy picking up some tips, but in general a thread in excess of 2 pages in a forum is too long for me to wade through and reply to.

    I'm sorry I didn't understand
    If (MyThoughtsExactly != beenPosted)
          {
             Me.Sleep(6000);
          }
          Else...
    
    I would've thought one of these terms would be a function, and also would'nt you want to .Sleep(6000) if
    YourThoughtsExactly == beenPosted
    
    Not pedeantic or owt :wink:

    Top right of the post you want to quote, press the quote button.


    If we only posted when we had 'something' to say Cake Stop would have closed long ago.

    You found my hair grip...

    But anyways....

    Back to the OP. I also have noticed a lot of "lurkers" and Aggie is once again quite correct. (Milk it hun, you won't hear it that often).

    So what puts you off posting? TBH I see certain user names and I turn off (careful boys), I see some either clocking their post count or talking general hairy spherical objects.

    But anything goes in CS so what the hell is stopping all you lurkers?

    Love n hugs
