ACOT Message Board

 do you think we have them? and why do you think they lurk? I have never done that..I just jump right in...but then I DO tend to be a tad chatty.

 Who are you calling a Lurker????
Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm??

I'd bet all boards have lurkers. They're probably shy, or dont' have the time to be truly active, or just want some inspiration and info without getting all mixed up with a bunch of crazies
I'm no good at lurking either, too opinionated!!
C'mon lurkers, say hi!!!

 "Hi." 

 you like to talk?  YOU?

Whatever.

 I think people are afraid to jump in because they might think that ACOT is a tightly formed clique and they would be intruding and not welcomed.  But that is not the case.  I myself lurked and it took a couple of members of the creative team that noticed me and sent me PM's during a crop to get me out here.  Thank you for doing that.  The ladies on this forum are very friendly and don't bite, very helpful and funny to boot!

 Asset you don't lurk do you???  I just thought you were busy...

DaisyLou--who you callin' crazy?? bwahahaha

 I lurk during lunch periods at work - just enough time to browse the gallery & catch up on gossip, not enough time for much more.  Usually I end up leaving 1-2 random comments or gallery praise. 

 This morning I thought to myself:

"Self- you've got some time, go play on ACOT for awhile."

So I did.

TWO hours later, I am still here. It sucked me in..... part of the problem is it takes me 4 minutes or better to post a reply, but I don't want to talk about that. I better go give Kari's horse his hay & exercise him..... shhhhhhh, don't tell her he's not fed yet this morning coz I'll blame all of you!!!!

Sus- yes, I am busy, but I do admit to popping in & not posting on ocassion because it takes soooooo friggin long. Drives me batty. Like right now, I am sitting here twitching.

 We probably do have lurkers, I wish they'd jump right in though.

 I am more of a jump right in kinda gal. I felt very comfortable at ACOT right away. At other boards I have found it takes a while and sometimes it never happens.

 I *luv* my ACOT friends.

 I was a lurker for @ 4 months.  I wanted to jump in but I didn't scrap then, so I felt weird.

 I'm sure we have some this time of year looking at the CHA previews.

 OoooOOoooo....I never thought about the voyeuristic aspect.

That's kinda sexy. 

 Ummmm....we must have some because there are 1373 pages of screennames and you don't need one to order!

 I would be a lurker too, until I could decide if I wanted to get involved with this crazy place or not.

 Okay, I'll 'fess up!  I'm lurker-ish.  I don't post very often.  I joined the MB back during the March online crop and posted quite a bit then.  I post on another scrappy MB as well, so sometimes it's hard to keep up with more than one! And I do have a hard time just jumping in with a bunch of people who are already friends.  I don't like to push myself on people.  But since my girl Day is here, and posting so much, I will try to post more often, because I know she'll have my back!  I bought her goodies, so she'd better, LOL!

 I might be considered a lurker of sorts.  I am very shy and I hate to impose myself on people.  So I just check in, read the threads and only post if I have something I want to say. And I don't do that just here, I do it on any other message boards that I visit. And I do the same thing in real life....just kind of hang on the outside and listen to everyone's conversations and dont' join in unless I feel very comfortable doing so or am asked a specific question........ 

And I would assume there are a few others just like me who just lurk around here and enjoy your interaction, but are too shy to join in........
