i lurked for about a year after posting for a few months but in the end i started posting again. i was quite shocked at how much i knew about people by then, it made me excessively circumspect.
― estela, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 02:50 (eleven years ago) link
I took a year off and I'll tell you, it was work at times.
listen, dunk. i'm not really creeped out. it's just completely foreign to me that someone could sit for eight years on the sideline without so much of a peep.

lurkers should be commended for their restraint.
― estela, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 02:54 (eleven years ago) link
I lurked for like...5 years?
― iatee, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 02:58 (eleven years ago) link
it wasn't hard cause it was mostly ILM and I had nothing to say
once in a while I had a good joke and I was like damn I wish I were a reg so I could make this joke
― iatee, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 03:00 (eleven years ago) link
it was prob harder to lurk when you could post unregistered
― lag∞n, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 03:03 (eleven years ago) link
it was easier to post as a fake googler

i remember an old post where a lurker chimed in about how he saw ILX as this collection of stories he followed along... he used this amazing musical metaphor that i can't quite remember

i don't think it's weird to lurk for that long
even me, i've been posting for a long ass time but there are still parts of the board or certain threads where i'm just a lurker and have been for a long time, just don't have anything to add

I mostly watched ilm and posted on the very rare occasion, for years. Eight years later and leaning on ile heavily after a life crisis, here I am.
― mh, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 04:59 (eleven years ago) link
not only have i never lurked, i have never read an ilx post aside from my own, and those only as i was typing them
― flopson, Tuesday, 4 December 2012 05:04 (eleven years ago) link

more thread relevant:
ILE can be such a cliquey place sometimes, with all these in-jokes and funny language and special ways of doing things, that I wonder how it must seem to the outsiders - do they feel excluded? do they feel intimidated? do they think we're strange and unapproachable?And then I realise I don't care. Because it's the weird silly stuff on ILE which makes me love this place so much

ilx can be kind of mean and i enjoyed the schadenfreude....main things spurring me to post: 1) learning of the existence of 77 and the prospect of never knowing what happened on this secret board was slowly driving me insane and 2) i have seen several ilxors irl in baltimore (strongo, drew d, and stevie d) and the fact that i knew who they were and actually knew things about them but couldn't say hello to them seemed like the weirdest thing and it really bugged me for a long time. also i gained alot from ilx over the years, it's def changed my life in terms of ways i think about and listen to music and interpret fiction so i wanted to give something back and say thanks guise. you have no idea how much shit i've stolen from you and passed off as my own observations.
