Poll --> Another Round of Tinker Lurker Poster Spy

[Fairy]

We last did this in 2006. I was thinking about this the other day and thought I'd do another one.

Tinker
I come here to search for exactly what I need, and that's about it.

Lurker
I am here quite a bit and read alot, but I almost never post.

Poster
I definitely post. I may or may not be a recognizable user, but I certainly do post here.

Spy
I'm mainly a user of another parenting board.

[veronica]

Poster , for sure! And the first one to reply!!!! woohoo

[jse107]

I 'spose I'm in between a poster and lurker. I read a LOT more than I post.

[BelleoftheBallFlagstaff]

Poster fo sho!

:yeahthat:

[elektra]

I definitely post. But I feel like I read and lurk way more than I actually post.

[Fairy]

With the number of people that are signed in at any given time, and the number of people lurking as guests, I'm just looking forward to the total vote count when all is said and done.

[BabyMine]

I am definately a poster but it comes in spurts.

[TwinFoxes]

Poster for sure...though slowing down as my babies have more waking hours.

[caleymama]

I am definately a poster but it comes in spurts.

:yeahthat:

[AnnieW625]

I post a lot.

[vonfirmath]

You know--tinkers won't even see this post most likely?

[BelleoftheBallFlagstaff]

I have 2.92 posts per day on average.... That IS a poster right?

[boolady]

Poster. As another put, it's often in spurts, and I'm always reading...I just don't always have something to contribute.

[WatchingThemGrow]

Is there a category for "I get my daily news here?"

[LarsMal]

I'm thinking I'm a poster! ;) Don't know if it's ever of any value or importance, but still a poster!!

[MontrealMum]

Is there a category for "I get my daily news here?"
:hysterical:
And unfortunately for me, all too true ;)

[MZS V]

Although I WANT to be a poster, I am a lurker, LOL. I read almost every thread, but hardly ever post. I guess I am cybershy.

Dude. Last time you said you could tell me, but then you'd have to kill me. Hee!

:ROTFLMAO: I did say that, didn't I! You had better keep an eye open when you sleep then.

[mommyp]

I post. But it goes in spurts too. I read a few more threads than I post to.

[sarahsthreads]

Definitely a poster, although I usually just vote on polls and don't reply. Seemed like I ought to post on this one, though. ;)

Sarah :)

[rlu]

Posting more and more as I go. I lurked for two or so years before becoming a user and then I didn't post too much. I believe my first post (well, after the obligatory intro post) was about messy diapers. Yessiree, poop brought me out into the open.

[Fairy]

Poop will getcha every time.

[Kitten007]

Poster. And reading all the replies....I got a great laugh today!!:ROTFLMAO:

BTW this is my main "human" contact being a stay at home mom....one day getting out will get easier! (or at least I keep telling myself)

[nupe]

I post some, but usually read the board NOT signed in, because I don't like the way the threads read when I am signed in, evan after making some adjustments.

[KpbS]

Is there a category for "I get my daily news here?"

:yeahthat: LOL

[love_a_latte]

I 'spose I'm in between a poster and lurker. I read a LOT more than I post.

:yeahthat:

I think of myself as the thread killer. The moment I post the thread dies, and I just feel dumb.

(crossing fingers...this will go on for a while, won't it???)

I feel the same way too sometimes..............:ROTFLMAO:

[MamaKath]

Definitely a poster, but it ebbs and flows. ;)

[Cam&Clay]

I 'spose I'm in between a poster and lurker. I read a LOT more than I post.

:yeahthat:

I've been around here for a long time, but I don't post that often. I get a lot of good info from here, though.


And when I do post, I find that people think I'm pretty funny.

[LexyLou]

I consider myself a poster, albeit not a frequent one.

[KrisM]

With over 9,000 posts, I'm going to have to vote poster. But, I still often feel like I read and not post way more than I do post. And, I often wonder if people recognize my ID or not.

[Melaine]

Maybe there should be an option for "obsessive poster" or "poster-who-cannot-shut-up"....that would be me. Just for the record, I was a lurker for a couple years before I jumped in with both feet.

[elizabethkott]

Poster! Poster!

[mickminmom]

I 'spose I'm in between a poster and lurker. I read a LOT more than I post.
:yeahthat:

Appreciate all I learn here!!!

[mamicka]

Poster - I'm not sure how recognizable I am... & if I am recognized I'm not sure it's with fondness, LOL! It is what it is.

[rupptopia]

I guess I am a lurker. But I definitely post when I feel I have information to share (say an opinion on a stroller, diaper bag or baby item) that I think would be helpful. Or if I have been in similar situation as someone in the b*tching post or the lounge.

Sometimes I almost post (general support or agreement), but then think the ladies that post here a lot will think "who the heck is that? never heard of her!" Love this board though and have gotten lots of great info over the years . . .

[jgenie]

I was a lurker for a long time but now I feel I'm a poster. I think I tend to post a lot of questions and I try to post support in threads looking for P&PT.

[ged]

I am a lurker. I've been here since 2005 and I still do not have 100 posts...

[DrSally]

I started out as a tinker and then got sucked in. I remember my first post and how far I've come since then in my knowledge of parenthood. Parenting really is one of those things that just comes with experience. If you have the pooled exprience of so many great moms, it helps a lot! When I first started, I was on an old, sloooow computer. When I got my new laptop, I could do so much more BBB-ing in less time, hahaha. I realized I had been around for awhile when Tyler's mama noticed my new siggy and when I got some nice feedback on my posts from some newer posters. In addition to the info/knowledge I get and share here, I really enjoy the company of everyone here.

I welcome additional voices. I like to hear from newer people who may bring different perspectives. I wouldn't let that thought/fear deter you from posting!

[jent]

I started out as a tinker and then got sucked in.
:yeahthat: I definitely remember thinking, why would I bother checking the Lounge posts? I just want to check the bargains!

Now I post, but in spurts. Tonight I came to try to learn more about carseats, but I'm too tired to write my question tonight. But I thought I'd see what people were saying tonight before I closed up the lappy. And here I am, posting.

[Fairy]

Aaaaactually, you've got 146. It says you're at the 50 post level cuz you haven't hit the next level, which I think is 200? Or maybe it's 500. But you have broken the century mark! :cheerleader1:

[Fairy]

I agree, rupp!

[jacksmomtobe]

Another person who is a regular reader but not so frequent poster. As you can see with being around since 04 and only having 500+ (though in reading another post I realized that my actual count is different and looked to see what it was... 826!). I get so much info here. I talk about the board a lot and spread info gained here to people I know in real life. This is probabbly the only website I read every day. So much info to obtain without having to go to any other sites! So even if I'm not posting I'm usually reading (probably spending too much time here doing that :) ).

[mariza]

I go in spurts, poster for sure but lurk lots when I'm too lazy to sign in (or sneeking in some BBB time from work...:innocent:)

[c&j04]

I'm still a lurker I guess :(
Maybe that will change in April when I have some actual experience on some of these subjects!! I'm sure I'll be here with lots of questions! Thanks to all of you who are helping me learn/research my options before the time comes. I love this place and quote it often.

[Joolsplus2]

I lurked for many months before I figured out how to even register to post here...and now I just can't keep my mouth shut :blahblah::D

Yep! I've been here since '04 also, and have under 500 posts! (Even though I read everyday!)

[arivecchi]

I'm going to have to vote poster since my DH now complains when he sees me logged on to the BBB. :D

[m4nash]

I'm definitely a lurker. I read almost everyday and have been here since '05 and a member since Jan '06 and only have 42 posts.

[kdeunc]

I am addicted to reading the board but post much less frequently. I have learned so much from all the mamas here!

[vludmilla]

I consider myself a "poster" but I'm not sure anybody knows me. Not a poster that people notice is missing, you know. ;)

[mamicka]

You are actually one of the ones I always recognize. I always appreciate what you have to say. I don't feel like I'm on enough to reliably notice when people are missing anymore.

Aw, thanks :) Same here. I always appreciate yours too.
