When you're reading a thread, you get to the last post on the page, and you notice the people reading the topic. There are a couple ways one could easily (or at least maybe just me) get creeped out. The first being you see a username of someone who never posts.. and minutes after you've left the thread, they still haven't posted in it. Then again, in this scenario, perhaps that particular member's just a reader. At least he/she signed up and created an account, no? The second scenario is when you notice that a guest (or sometimes more than one) is reading the topic. I mean, yeah, I like to read threads and never really reply.. but to see a guest? I mean.. why the eff would you read threads without ever wanting to contribute to them? To interact? To be a part of it? Why just be an audience member? In some ways, it really is like watching television. createBlog's community, its members, its posts.. are all someone's entertainment.
 Sorry.. just had to get that out.

QUOTE(Kathleen @ Jul 22 2006, 11:37 PM)  But what if.. a few of those guests are people that come on here regularly to read?  I mean, your case is understandable. Many of us start out like that.. but I wouldn't doubt if there are full-time lurkers/readers that never intend on joining.. only.. watching.. as if we're lab rats of some sort. Or bunny rabbits.I DON'T PATRONIZE BUNNIES. yeah, I know... what if it's my mom?
