Lurkers

What do you think about the Lurkers on the Aussie board?

Posted by stamper on Sep-09-2002 11:39:

I think they SUCK!!!

But i'm sure as soon as they register and start posting i would like them.

Posted by fzrr on Sep-09-2002 11:45:

hmmm...not much

i lurked for almost a year before i registered...then i lurked for almost another year before i started posting. Some people just like to watch!

I generally don't mind lurkers, seeing I was one myself for quite a while. But I think that there is a time for every lurker to register and start contributing to the forums.

However, what I really dislike is when friends of mine with no interest in trance lurk the forums and read my posts (and the posts of other people they know)...*cough*joe*cough*

that really shits me! It's so sneaky!

Sometimes it can be hard to get into a forum the right way. FOr example the guys on ITM are pretty intimidating.

Posted by webmeister on Sep-10-2002 11:43:

a lot of the people on ITM are real pricks .. except that REAL NAOKI guy .. he's an absolute classic

yes, I've found ITM quite intimidating...and I don't think there are many trance fans there anyway. I can't be bothered posting there because it takes too long for their pages to load!

Posted by Wasted_Space on Sep-10-2002 13:14:

I'm a nice guy in real life, really.

Yes I agree with your views of the ITM people.
I agree about the Real Naoki guy being cool too, I was just reading quite a few of his posts today, and there's a thread with a pic of him too about him being the 3D World sushi star. I don't know how the hell he writes the way he does... I definitely can't write like that... it's like he's retarded in a very funny way. And people really like him because of such a character!

I'd say a lot of the ITM people are into the "trendiness"/"coolness" of clubbing and think they're so great and have such an attitude.

I'd say a lot of the ITMers aren't into trance, but there are quite a few who do (as you'd see in the threads about Altitude). Do you think those who do like trance have less of a bad attitude than others? I've often thought about the difference between the trance crowd and the funky house crowd... I think if you guys want to discuss this kind of stuff further, start a new thread, there'd be heaps to say I think.

I joined last year, but was also a lurker for a while before I joined. I did remember seeing the Australian forum, and it was pretty quiet back then... the first post I made in the Australian forum was early this year about Two Tribes. Now we can see that there's a community that has formed.

I'm a lot more active in some of the other forums on this site. The Australian forum for me was for whenever I had a bit of casual spare time away from the other forums... but maybe that'll change after seeing quite a few interesting threads here lately... yeah I think I'll be checking the Australian forum more often.

ITM is full of candy kids. And no offense to candy kids, but Fuck off and leave me alone. I remember my first post on ITM was replied with a big fuck off from one of the members.

p.s. that candy kid thing was a joke, although i really don't like them

Posted by ascension on Sep-10-2002 15:28:

Posted by hey cheggy on Sep-10-2002 15:37:

Posted by ascension on Sep-10-2002 15:57:
