Default Lurkers

Man my figurehead picture I posted has had close to 300 views.
And several downloads.
Makes me wonder just how many lurkers follow this group for all the
expert sailing tips some of us provide here for free.

It is odvious 100's and hundreds follow along yet are to meek to type
anything here.
How can we charge them?

Thanks for your suggestions

Joe

You don't even want most of the lurkers to post.
They lurk because they are illiterate and have
nothing to say worthwhile. Come to think of it,
though, the same thing can be said of Gaynz, Bobsprit,
BB, Ozone, Vito, Miss Mo'lissa, Katysails and several
others.

"katysails" hunted and pecked . . .

But, you still haven't learned something very important.

Woman should always wipe from front to back. Why you insist on
doing it the other way is something I will never understand.

Does something become mahogany colored if the proper direction isn't
followed?


Amen!

My $.02...

I enjoy talking about sailing. I do not enjoy arguing politics. I do
not enjoy arguing about whether my car (et al.) is "better" than
bobsprit's.

I post once in a while; but mostly lurk. I just don't want to
participate in most of the crap that gets started here.

Useful suggestions? Sorry, I really can't think of anything except to
say, "Talk more about sailing and less about other crap." But that's
not really a realistic comment.

Joe, when I posted my Chesp. Bay Cruise trip report last year, the
pics got 3800 hits before I took them down.
