the watchers (i.e., cove lurkers) thread

[milowent]

inspired by gemma and her sleuthing capabilities (hey we watch the videos too, you know! no one could make out that as a friggin eye symbol, no way!)

post on this thread ONLY if you're a watcher/lurker at the cove. make yourself known by at least posting the next letter of the alphabet on this thread, and anything else you care to share (or not)

Hi everyone!

I'm a little shy so I don't post much on here, but I do watch the videos and read many of the threads. I'm currently a student so anytime you see me browsing the forums you should probably yell at me to get back to studying!

that's all you get!

It's wonderful to have you all as readers, whether you post or not, but now you have intrigued me and I want to know you as friends, too.

[shelly]

lol noasinger... the whole reason we're lurkers is because we're not interested in the whole "computer friends" thing... i just like watching lg and reading the details..... back into hiding!

OK, I'm not a lurker but I have something to add.

I have done admin at message boards, some 10 times the size of this one. And it is always an argument about if we should purge the members list to include only the active people. I've always argued against that, and I'm glad to see it is not done here.

Like in a normal conversation in a bar, there are thsoe who like to talk and others who prefer to listen, at least for the most part. The internet is no different and there's no reason why we shouldn't respect that.

Edit: Terribly sorry, that will teach me for not reading a post fully before I start my reply. I suppose this is more in response to Wixy's question of why the number of accounts dropped from 1500 to 500 a little while back. But it does show that I agree with you about not purging accounts.


Just to let you know the member list was not purged. I simply did a recount of accounts, no accounts were deleted. Proboards isn't the best solution out there, the number of accounts listed at the bottom of the page is not an accurate number and the only way to correct it to what the real number of accounts is, is by doing a recount. Again, I did not purge any accounts, I just asked the system to recount all the accounts, this is why the number shrank. I have no problem with lurkers and until LG that was all I ever did on message boards.

I dunno if I count as a watcher or not? I don't post as much as I used to but probably browse once every day or two. Dunno what number we are up to though, will guess at

OMG i find myself agreeing with J,

This is a good start for bridging that north/south divide,It's a brit thing!

Jen talk to you in the chat someday??

[Imparfaite]

I've hardly posted.

Back before the Creators killed the series, I chatted all the time. Since then though, I come on only when I'm bored to see if there are new videos. I've been totally upset with the whole series and such since they introduced Gemma.

Now, I honestly only post if I have something important to say.



Oh and what is it now? H?

[rhoswen]

Do the watchers in the series represent those watching it?
