bah. Lurkers promising to help the forums. They registered today to get a Gmail account. Silly lurkers.

no, I was a newbie two years ago, but I wasn't asking for any favors promising that I'd help out AT.

 

[wrnmb2000]

so you never promise, huh, is that because you can not keep your word?

Dude. Are you talking? WTF? You're gonna come in and sign up on AT just to get a fricking Gmail account and then question me. Who the F*ck are you? Shut the hell up, I hope you don't get a damn gmail account just for being an a$$

Cmon, be encouraging, and understand that whether for a particular reason or anything else, Anandtech is getting new members. And even if a few of them make contributions, i think it will be worth it.

So I suppose all you lurkers think it's just a "coincidence" that you all joined today and are only posting in this thread?

 

[wrnmb2000]

To Tal:

why do you think other people are such a jerk like you? is that because you are bad right from the begining?

 

[drkclw]

ableach33 turn on PMs

bad right? is Engrish your first language?

NM, we'll let ya go, you sure as hell aren't getting any invites from me or mine.

 

[rubisco]

what's this i hear about hotmail and yahoo blocking direct invites? lemme find the link real quick.


edit: nvm... it was somewhere else in this thread. has anyone confirmed this yet?

 

[tapjlb]

A lurker is someone who does not have an account and just scans the forums. we joined so we enjoy the elevated status of newbies

 

[Skiddex]

the yahoo and hotmail thing is about 4 pages back i think

 

[wrnmb2000]

"Engrish" is your first language? haha

And even if they did, what's the big deal? All of this elitist "I have a billion posts" crap is very annoying.

I've been registered for a while but my post count is low. So what does that mean? It means I selectively post. I could spend the next week basically saying "yeah" as a follow up to every thread here, and I'll be a platinum member in no time. Post count on boards like this are (mostly) meaningless.

Check your sarcasm meter.

I'm done here. Look at the poll on the first page. This should tell you where this sentiment is coming from. I'm not alone in feeling like you lurkers are kinda little whiny bitches to come in and act like we owe you something.

 

[rubisco]

enough with the flames... jeez. so what if he's here just for the invite.

 

[wrnmb2000]

to Tal, are you reading some "Engrish" post right now ?

 

[drkclw]

ArtDaddy enable PMs

 

[Skiddex]

seems to me that wrnmb might be flaming just to get out of the n00b level of posts, but is definatley staying in the n00b level of forum flaming

 

[wrnmb2000]

To Tal: so you have 1300 posts, are most of them BULL like what you did today?

I have like 360 posts and I consider myself selective also. This has nothing to do with the elitist crap. I just don't appreciate all the newbies coming in and then whining a bunch that's all.
