Are you a lurker?

[smtst5]

I’m transitioning into a lurker

 

[MrZeno]

Lurkers are by far the most interesting humans on any boards , anywhere. Unlike low hanging fruit , their mysterious voyeurism is what makes it so much fun to coach them into a post here and there.

Cheers to the lurkers

What’s that about low hanging fruit?
I lurked for years but I post some now.

There's a merit badge , gift bag , and logo sunglasses. * avatar waiting for you.

You got this

Lurker tip , find a place to drop a good morning , what you thinking or a random though.

 

[SeeMeRolling]

I feel like I don't really have anything to say much right now so I'm mostly lurking.

I get that way. I feel like that now.

 

[Wild_Honey_66]

If a lurker answered this question, would that nullify them of being a lurker?

Surely there are degrees of lurk?

 

[Justabaldguy70]

Surely there are degrees of lurk?

Like 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon?

Like 7 degrees of Kevin Bacon?

It's six, but yes.

Yes... I feel like a lurker now. I don’t feel I have anything to add at the moment.

Lurker dial set to 4

Sometimes it's just a matter of finding a thread that could benefit from your input.

Sometimes it's just a matter of finding a thread that could benefit from your input.

I should add that I can not count the number of people who have told me over the years that they don't feel that they have enough of the "right kind of experience to contribute to a thread."

Baloney! If you're old enough to post here legally, you have had enough life experience to comment on a thread dealing with life in general, relationships, what you dreamt the night before, what the latest fad is in your area for pizza, or music. Or politics, even, though we haven't delved into that neighborhood much over the last few years.

Seriously. Do not limit yourself because you perceive yourself to have insufficient experience in BDSM or related practices. That is one of the ties that binds here (see what I did there?) but it does not define the bounds of our lives.

Sometimes I prefer to absorb and at the right time release what I have gained.

It's so nice to have you around again.

Elvish graced my thread!

Wait, what? Where? Recently?

I so wish I had been in a better place back then. I miss him.

 

[cookiecat]

Yes. I kind of feel my age makes me avoidable to a lot of peeps on this site. So, I lurk in the shadows and hope to learn from others.

Are you 1000 years old?

Young and old and inbetween are welcome.

I must be a rotten apple laying on the ground. Totally no mystery. That's how I meet people.

Nice toast to lurkers, though. It is always good to see new people posting.

For me, it's the energy thing. Some days I'm not quite sure what to say and feel like retreating.

But I wanted you to know I think your questions and interaction on the AMA threads has been fun to read.

1000% yes.

 

[Aphroditiac]

You didn't used to be.

I used to post here, in cafe, occasionally. Practically never in the talk forum. I never felt, um - qualified to participate!

This is exactly what I felt for a long time. I felt like I would be a poser. Unqualified.

Sometimes, when I'm tired, don't feel like talking, or don't feel like I have anything worth contributing.

 

[gracie920101]

Sometimes, when I'm tired, don't feel like talking, or don't feel like I have anything worth contributing.

Me too and I usually post a pic or two ...or twenty.

There are those here that really hate that, though, so I'm trying to be better and use my words Instead of pics.

But I miss my pictures.

Low hanging fruit , no not at all. thank you for noticing my post.

Low hanging fruit are the hens that board the like , lick , grope , and whatever else the sorority of grannie pantie , bored soccer moms and subs on a prick tease online hall pass do. Those lame threads that go round and round getting lame attention from the same group of blue balls that have stoked said hens egos for however long they have been in that cocktease sorority. ** low hanging fruit

* you on the other hand it seems doesn't crave that prick tease adrenaline.

Every fucking day , subs with online hall passes to flirt are pathetic . Ask me a question and I'll answer it , yawn... That's Facebook shit. Old broads with years worth of posting history stoking the same like , lick , jerk offs that line up to be blessed by the sorority sisters of tease . How sweet is that ....pfffft , low hanging fruit. If you want it .

Lurkers , on the other hand , will drop you a note in a PM , post a post that catches a eye worthy of attention as mysterious. Like your avatar , your signature panel , your posting history. A good lurker knows what she's doing.....just saying.

It takes time and engery to give a woman the attention she deserves. Online or in the real world. The fruit at the top of the tree is the juiciest , ripest , and far better then .......the low hanging fruit.

 

[L3gacy]

What
The
Fuck?!?!

 

[cookiecat]

I actually like prick tease adrenaline every so often, but I get what you're saying. Sort of.

To each his or her own.

I'm going to steer this thread back to yank's sentiment: You don't have to be a bdsm expert to post here. It's interesting to have more voices chatting, more points of view.

I started this thread a while back as a way for folks who don't feel comfy posting to pop in and say hi. Be known. It's good to be seen every so often, right?

There's a lot of stuff here besides kink, D/s, bdsm. Recipes. Music. Books. Mental illness info. Pretty nails. Movies.

Years ago I posted in the General Board (a different profile) and the Playground. I found my comfort zone here. It's a small, smart group. Generally tolerant. Pragmatic. Friendly unless you're creepy (which is what I think Fingerfux was referring to).

I think it's easier to jump in to this Forum. People come and go and sometimes come back.

Anyways. Clearly I'm sitting home on a Friday night, thinking far too much about lurking.
