Duwenbasden, you changed your avatar didn't you??

I lurk a lot, mostly useing the search engine to answer my questions. It almost always answers my questions without having to bother the forum with repeated posts.

I've been a lurker for a long time (that should be obvious since I joined in 2003 but haven't even hit 200 posts yet!) I'll admit that I started coming here less right after I moved to the i-mate JasJar (fall of 2005,) but that was mostly because I needed to lurk on xda-developers.com to get device specific answers to questions I had. In the last few months though I have been coming here more often again, and mobilitysite too.

The other thing is that I don't think the way I write is all that condusive to posting. At least in the category of "trying to be helpful" posts. I think too long before I write something, so by the time I've figured out what I want to say to answer somebody's question, someone else has already said it.

It doesn't help either that I'm usually checking out the site when I'm at work and I have to be quick about it!

less posts on "why I hate the person above me or why I like the person..." and more content....I don't like wading thru crap to get to the important stuff....sometimes people just have too much time on their hands...

But enough about me being grumpy.....I do like this site.

I believe there was a time (a looooong time ago) when the Water Fountain posts were not included in the Recent Posts section of the front page. After a while there was either a vote (a poll maybe?) or there were just enough people asking Chris to include them again and they came back. I think that's what happened anyway.

But hey, we're at the Water Fountain here!

ahhh....I use the "todays posts" function to read all the new posts as theres just too many forums to peruse, and the first 8-10 are always filled with that junk....

If there was a way to not include the water fountain in that auto search...it would be great.

Midnight your time I guess. Believe it or not, I lurk a lot too

@Aximbigfan - This is something I wanted to tell you for a while. Here it is tonight. Every time you use I for I am or I've or whatever you use it for it is a CAPITAL I. So from now on you know it and there no excuse not to cap the I if used as self designation.

Actually I don't know if it's lurking, or rather trying to keep up with all the stuff thats going on. If I'm not posting I'm reading or searching, I like the water fountain but I do think it would be good if it could be filtered from the actual tech pleas for help.
