Lots of FReepers lurk here and never make a peep. Some even shop here for the latest news and bring it out beyond the trees to share as their own.

1. They don’t want to draw the attention of Sauron’s eye.
2. They fear being bullied beyond the trees if they admit to following Q.
3. They typically lurk everywhere anyway.
4. They feel they can fight the orcs better if they stay anonymous.
5. Our incredible brainpower leaves them speechless?

No matter. We are the news now.

(Although it would be nice to hear from them. We get discouraged sometimes.)

I am one of those! I get so much information from all of you and appreciate it! Now I shall go back to lurking. :)

I’m mostly a lurker, but only because I get so far behind on the threads.

I’m pretty much banned from all social media except FR. I try to stay on good behavior here. I don’t need a zot or a bunny w/ a pancake cap.

Slight slide - I’ve noticed that there are many movies being released this year which tells me that they were probably produced in the 2019-2020 timeframe - cough - cough - during the lockdowns. Which also means traveling to God Knows Where to film. Wonder if “they” had to wear masks on the planes? Do as I say, not as I do.

I’m also one. I do check in once in a while, but since my research skills aren’t that great and I don’t want to post ‘In’ all the time I mostly just lurk.
I do want to let you know how much I appreciate all the information here and the great research done by FreeQ’s

This is so true.

I got some private inquiries from Lurkers as to their eligibility for the meet-up.

One thing I struggle with when posting stuff here, either threads or good posts in response to a thread, is whether to courtesy ping people or not because I don’t now if they want to be associated with our thread.

I have lurked a long time. Love Q. 20 year Freeper, but with work, I do most of my catch-up instead of sleeping (don’t much like sleep). However, from the vast knowledge I have received, I have tried and succeeded to bring several people around to paying attention. Funny the least involved can become total fanatics once they are awakened.

So, since I am old and my knees won’t let me twerk, I guess all I can do is lurk

There are over fifty screen names on the AWK ping list, most of them never post on the Q thread.
