Every now and then, I get a PM from someone with not that many posts, most of them in Cult. forums, a lurker quoting something I've said in one of the off-topic forums like the Pub of Physical and Mental Well Being, telling me they appreciated my words. Those PM's mean more to me than I can even tell those people.

Ya I did the same. I lurked the mush grow forums till my first grow was done, then I joined up. Had to change accounts since then (people I know knew that user name), but I posted from the start. It took me at least a year to come to the pub and post regularly. I used to be mostly Pyschedelic Experience and mush grow, and occasionally ethnobotanical.

I know exactly what you mean. The fact people can touch me and I can touch people through a medium like this is what keeps me coming back. Keeps me honing my skill of spreading the good word with words.
Oh, an I certainly appreciate your words and respek you. I wouldn't have spent so much time on your "Silly Hat" comic, otherwise!

Yeah, I've had both hate mail and fan mail for telling of my opinions on the UFO/ET phenomena. Something I never expected.
For some reason I'd assumed the shroomery would be full of hippies but you soon realize the huge variation of people and attitudes here.
Strangely theres some people that regularly post here that often seem to bad mouth shrooms themselves lol. They don't do it directly though cause there is obviously an overwhelming amount of shroom lovers here.

I lurked for close to a year gleaning info from the brightest minds in the cultivation forum and putting it to good use. Shroomery is the first forum I've ever posted on and now I'm hooked.

Yeah, I definitely lurked in the Cult forum for a long time. I still don't post anywhere near as much as I read. I think I average like...2 posts a week or something.

I lurked close to a year before signing up, but I abandoned that sn and went back to lurking. So all in all it's been nearly 2 years of lurking before signing up for real.
OMR you really stood out in my mind from my time as a lurker and I can't say that about too many others. And most of the others that did stand out aren't around anymore, like Swami

I still consider myself a lurker. I initially found the psychedelic FAQs, moved on to mushroom cultivation, and eventually began making the occasional post. I enjoy absorbing the information here, and occasionally participating in this fine community.

Thanks 
I lurked on the Shroomery from 2000-2002, when I finally joined. 2003 was a year of Hell for me, and the Shroomery was always there for me to help me get through that most difficult year.
I've heard people call the Shroomery their "home away from home" and I agree. The Shroomery has really enhanced my life, and with that I mean especially our motley crew here on the messageboard.
I like it here.
Lurkers, you are missing out on something beautiful. The Shroomery is so much better when you participate in it, than when you watch it from a distance. Bounce ideas off friends, clash with villains, become an active part of the Whole.
You can roam the web for years and not find an equal to this community.
Join in on the fun and the drama of it all.
Step out of the shadows

I lurk to kill the time, I'm too lazy to post. Although if I do feel like putting in my opinion I will.
Ohhh and I originally joined to check out the cult section.
