We're Being Watched!!

I know this because I used to watch all you guys post. Now I post and someone is watching me.
Wiccan_Seeker's posts are probably akin to someones's newspaper. OneLessForeskin, same with you, and a whole hell lot you awesome writers here at the Shroomery.
Isn't that cool, though? Out of all the Anonymous viewers out there, some of them have to hear what we say, what we're doing. Undoubtedly someone sees this forum (and others) as their weekly soap opera. I wanted to be in the play, so I started posting.
To the Audience: Sign up, and start posting, YOU creepy looooosers!;-)
Any of ya'll folks were lurkers, reading the Shroomery, until you HAD to have a part in the play, because an Act was clearly missing?
That act was you! Glad to have everyone here. Well most people, anyways. This place reminds me of Highschool Homeroom, without all the bullshit, just half of all the bullshit.
This isn't just a 'sappy I Love The Shroomery' Thread...what do ya'll think about lurkers?

I think they prefer to avoid spotlighting themselves in the boundless stupidity of the forums...
Good for them.
If this is like homeroom, I must have completely missed high school.

Well I kind of see this place as a sort of "highschool" merely because of the antics, drama, and stupidity a highschool is known for.
Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of people here I think DEARLY of, a lot of fuckin' smart (fuckin' awesome) people on this site, great writers, however, this place is still good ol' fashion fun, which puts it towards the highschool spectrum. Maybe Special Ed College, though.
I wouldn't have it any other way. No way I would come to this site if it were all "prim, proper, posh" militant and what not. There are realer than real people here, methinks.

Many people, especially in the midwest US, live in a state of baseless fear and think if they sign up here a SWAT team will kick their door in the next day.
Five-O does watch this site but they are only looking for bulk growers and dealers, they aren't going out of their way to get a kid and his ounce of home grown shrooms.
Free your mind folks, be fearless.

I lurked for a couple weeks before I actually joined and started posting. I wasn't afraid of the legalities or anything. I used this forum as an information source because of the unindoctrinated opinions of its members, and still do. After a time, I realized how laid-back this place seemed and hopped on board.
A lot of folks probably lurk here because of society's compunction with drugs, and wouldn't want themselves associated with a forum that's all about mind-altering substances and reveling in the misfortune of the ignorant.

I don't have a problem with lurkers. This probably has to do with the fact that my reading to posting ratio is extremely high. AKA, a lurker

Let's try to call out at least one lurker to register.
Hey lurkers, which one of you is going to man up and make an account? I'll give you five shrooms if you post in this thread.
Of course they will be taken away if you are revealed to be a puppet.

I second WhiskeyClone's offer! 5 Shrooms for the first Lurker to step out of the proverbial shadows!

I lurk initially for any community I'm looking at joining. This one was no exception.
However, the idiocy level here is so shockingly low for a community online that I felt kinda drawn to the place. Glad I joined up and am posting here.

their also looking for people selling over the net. since its really hard for the feds to track people from their posts and takes a lot of time and energy. they can also only track you as far as the network you logged on from. plus we have freedom of information and freedom of expression/speech.

i don't think i read the pub until i had been here for about a year or so, maybe 2?
when i lurked i lurked the grow and growlog forums.
personally i think thats where the magic of the shroomery is at. so if you're lurking and you're reading this go back the grow forums, there is nothing to see here.

I signed up and made a post (in reply to something) as soon as I found out about the boards 
The Psychedelic Experience FAQ was what originally brought me here, linked by a friend.

I lurked on the Mush Cult forums myself until my first (and so far only) grow finished. So maybe about a month or two.
Then I became a poster. I think I just jumped right in, no introductions necessary. However, I was still a total n00b.
Spewing nUbsauce everywhere.
