I have an idea.

1. Register for a new account today
2. Wait for 10 years
3. Sell it to a fellow ATer
4. PROFIT!!

yeah. you can hardly call half of these lurker people "lurkers" (e.g. munchkin and ernie). well, maybe ernie is the exception, but munchkin came here to ask a question (which required registration), got his answer, and moved on. i bet he doesn't even remember that he has an account here.

to truly lurk, one would have to sit and read posts on a regular basis without responding. i find it hard to believe that half of the "lurkers" here do that, because as a lurker, i'd be compelled to respond and partake in the discussions here rather than read a bunch opinions presented here when i could just as well be part of the discussion.

that is all.

omg i've been owned :roll:

i'll see when he visits next -- and after that, and after that.

then i'll see if my point is proven.

 
I'm a long lurker, infrequent poster.
I've actually been lurking since the days when the young Anand was reviewing cards such as the Matrox Mystique( or was it Millenium2???). I forget, it's been awhile.😕
