How long did you lurk before joining teh forums?

This is where you can discuss your homework, family, just about anything, make strange sounds and otherwise discuss things which are really not related to the Lancer-series. Yes that means you can discuss other games.

i lurked for about 6 months before i worked up the courage to join. this was my first forum after all.

Was so long ago... I can't remember. Probably about a week or so. I figured the worst that could happen was that I'd make a complete fool of myself (which I did) and either march blithely forward in total innocence or never return.

About 20 minutes...

Yeah, about a week for me too. TLR was my first webforum that I was actually a part of, and I didn't know crap about how they worked. I also ended up making a comlete fool of myself when I joined. (Not all of it was me though, I do have a cusion who would get on and find my saved passwords and screw up my accounts.)

I lurked a long time. ~8-9 months. I finally encountered a problem I couldn't fix by reading threads, so I joined to ask...and give help where asked for.

Oh, long time ago. My first forums weren't TLR, but the Uplink/Introversion ones. Didn't stay long. I know I had already registered when I was still in the UK as I had already started talking to people like Giskard, etc, but started to get involved properly when I was actually back in Germany.

really, does it really matter?

honestly, who gives a damn how long you 'lurked' in the so called 'shadows' of tlr?

this place really seems to have gone waaaaaaaaaaaaay downhill since i was last here.

anyway. i guess i should go back to 'lurking' instead of stirring up the members of this fine establishment.

fine establishment indeed.

No, I didn't sense that it did though...

No-one really, as it's meaningless isn't it? I mean, it doesn't actually mean anything. I guess the original poster was curious, and since it doesn't either cost me anything, or demean/belittle me at all, I answered.

I can't quantify "downhill" that simply, everyone has different ideas about the place and what it means to them personally (I assume). Do you mean it's quiet, less people you know or less people posting in general? or just simply that the forum isn't bursting with exciting topics (or even topics )? Since the site itself hasn't changed, it can't be the actual site - or is it?


anyway. i guess i should go back to 'lurking' instead of stirring up the members of this fine establishment.

fine establishment indeed.


Whatever floats yer boat, although you're welcome to hang about and liven things up if you wish (erm, not that kind of liven ).
