Re: Welcome Lurkers!

Nothing brings out the lurkers like a speargun giveaway. When Iya had his speargun giveaway contest years ago it got a bunch of lurkers to sign up.

Re: Welcome Lurkers!

Are you considered a Lurker if you are actually a member but typically don't sign on just to see what's happening every day?

JimB, I guess that situation might be called a "Quasi-Lurker." They have been in the water and found it too hot or too cold to stay in and post. LOL That's cool. But, now I wonder how many of you lurkers are true lurkers? Why don't those of you Lurkers out there sign in and let us know if you are a True Lurker or a Quasi-Lurker?

Re: Welcome Lurkers!

I wonder if Lurkers are also good at stalking fish? If so, do they shoot them or just watch from a reasonable distance until someone else shoots them?

One time, I was lurking aroud this chick's window and then her dad came out, but I told him I was only a Lurker, totally not committed to anything but lurking, but his shotgun didn't buy it. Damn you Dick Cheney!

You got a point bro

Re: Welcome Lurkers!

Welcome Robbie, It takes alot of courage to come out of the Lurkers Closet. Spearboard is a wild and woolly place in cyberspace, but you Aussies know how to handle the Outback, so this should be a cakewalk. I had lunch this week with a fine Aussie visiting the USA from the Shark Shield company that is based Down Under. I think they will be donating to the Spearboard Open prize table. All the best on the board! Tony
