I have Post envy!
I've been lurking around DU for the past year or so, reading more than I've written. Enjoyed myself immensely. Now I'm trying to beef up my Posts, and it a'int easy. This is number 200.

5. yup. I'll reply to anything

But I am no internet stalker :O8):

3. I'll help
Edited on Sat Feb-12-05 04:49 AM by Zuni
you can reply to this, amd beef up your post count.

I love DU---particularly the lounge (the lounge is my favorite place on the Internet---a chill place where you can meet people and have fun) :)and the group forums (where you can talk about favorite interests with fellow enthusiasts)
I really can't hang out in GD for too long, as it is too argumentative (some posters are too extreme and some are impolite when debating). I always raise my blood pressure over there

But glad to have you here. Hope you stay for a long time :hi:

6. Thanks
I've just discovered the Lounge after mainly using DU as a news source. It's fun to chat about random things with like-minded people.

7. I know what you're saying.
I've been a member for close to 2 years and don't even have 900 yet.

9. Same for me.
Also, many times when I read a thread I'll find someone's already said what I was going to say.:-)

10. I was a long term lurker too.
Don't worry about your post count; it's all about the impression you leave.

For example, I'm a blasphemous, cussin' drunk. It doesn't take 1000 posts to figure that out :+

On another note, I've spotted numerous disruptors of the wily kind who've had 1000+ posts...got a keen eye for that sort of thing. I'd expand on this, but I'm getting a bit dizzy...

(oh, actually, I was registered here years ago...just forgot my password. Too paranoid at the time to store it in my browser cache)

11. I was actually afraid to post
for quite some time. I was afraid I would be too far this way or that way or that I would use "radical" language and get banned from here real quick like. I have found this to be a great message board when it comes to free speech. Other places will ban you if you use certain language and it kind of puts a damper on the spirit of things when they do that. I figure I'll make friends here and have to apologize every now and again when I get carried away. I love the people on DU so far.
