to find out why some of you mnetters have been busy reading for a long time but don't post?
What are your reasons?

ks, you said "the home lives of us regular posters"

I am a reformed non-poster. Didn't post for about a year but have recently thrown caution to the wind. Have suddenly realised that I don't give a monkeys if no one likes me or if my opinion is different to everyone elses. I quite enjoy going against the grain now. Have got to admit to feeling a little bit intimidated by the well known on here though. Also get a bit peeved when I post and no-one cares, tend not to post about personal stuff now though.

Similar to others I lurk every day when at work but often haven't got anything to add, feel it's been said already and stuff. I love it on here though - not everyone wants to post all the time. Also I don't have any problems at the moment so nothing to ask about really.

AnnieQ · 22/04/2005 12:03

I post in fits and starts. Sometimes I have stuff to say, but other times I feel that what I have to say is unimportant, been said before, or I feel that I'm being ignored because I'm not a regular, if you see what I mean.

Generally I think that other people can express themselves far better than me, so I don't always bother.

Psychomum actually used the word "snurk" in rl the other day... it was a truly terrifying incident for both of us.
