Lurkers

Recommended Posts

Just how many of them are on DW?

I was bored and did a head count.

I believe there are 1420 registered users on this site that have 0 posts.

That is incredible.

I lurked for quite a while here before registering. my usual routine before i register at a forum. but 3-4 years may be quite an exception to the rule lol..

Heh, and that was AFTER the admins pruned all the 0 postcount users a few years back.

Of course, I think half of those were Dashiva.

I sort of thought about this yesterday. My estimate was that there's maybe 700 active users on the DW forums. I'm not sure what to think exactly; some times that seems like a high guess, sometimes low. I'm too lazy to look at the stats.

That explains the oldest Lurker accounts dating back to "only" the start of 2004.

Lurkers are the best. Besides this post, I think I'm going to continue lurking for a long time...

Heh. I just ask myself: "why register to a forum and not post?".

Can't you lurk without registering?

3457 people have made at least one post as of now.

EDIT: But there are only 753 people who have made at least 50 posts. Advanced search rocks.

When I first registered I saw "Registered Lurker". So I logged out thinking I was wasting bandwidth. I cruised the forums, logged out, till I found something. Log in... post... Shizam!... my title changed! Oh, NOW I get it!!!
Maybe some lurkers are people who don't get it...?
