Calling.....Captain....Hatbox
I was just thinking how there is a new new person like literally every day and wondering where they all go etc. So, yeah. I wish lurkers would come on and tell us what they think, eg who they like and don't like and why.

Apparently there are 1715 of us. No fucking way. Beyond the top 30 (in the stats) and another 50 or so I'd consider 'nodding acquaintances', I can't imagine where the hell the other 1600+ are hiding.
Why would you be arsed registering if you didn't want to post at least once?

The Captain does.
Ahem.
No mystery really WOM, I used to (very occasionally) post on the old site, but have always been more of a lurker enjoying what others have to say. The standards on here are still pretty high, and I seldom feel the urge to shove my (usually pretty banal) chatter into someone else's conversation. That plus if I started I'd probably never get anything done - my procrastination through lurking is already bad enough if the truth be told.
Well, since you asked, I've been on here since around 2003; think last time I was outed on here I was living in Russia. Not for a long time though, back in England now at law school. Unfortunately, if you're looking for any interesting/amusing LPC banter you're onto a loser though judging by the first few days...
See, I'm babbling already. This is what happens.

We need more user-names based on Captain Haddock curses. I would love to enter into correspondence with "Ostrogoth", "Vandal", "Fresh-water Pirate" and "Bashi-bozouk".
On the other hand, the usernaems "Rug-merchant" and "Zulu" might not go down so well these days.

The complete English-language list of Haddockian swear-words.
The use of the words "hydrocarbon" and "technocrat" as curses seems awfully prescient.
"Zulu" is not in there (I may remember it from a French version). The rather more in-your-face "fuzzy-wuzzy" is listed instead.

My parents force fed me Tintin in French, so I only know Haddock's French curses. Mille millions de mille milliards de tonnerre de Brest!

I find it slightly unnerving how a Guest's 'details' assimilate one's own once said Guest has left. I've just spent five minutes wondering how I could've posted the first reply three years before I joined this version of the board. (And indeed why OTF wouldn't have remembered my name either way.)
