Ditto to that.Pasta67 wrote:I find myself a strange mix of #6: The Dailies and #2: The Lurker. What I mean is, I'm on the forums almost everyday, but hardly ever post anything anymore.
So yeah, #6 & #2.

Re: What type of UD Forum Member are You?
Oh, Escapay. I'm going to revise a few to fit me. 
2. The Lurker - I'm a registered member, but I see very few threads worth replying, at least for me. I only reply to threads sometimes, usually with a 'I'm so excited for this to be on DVD!' post. Ever since school and work kept me busy, I've become a lurker. It's terrible.
"
5. The Frequent Poster - "I visit UD every week, usually for an hour or two on infrequent days. Maybe I'll be here on a Monday for an hour, then again on Thursday for two hours, but that's about it. I post as much as I can within the hour or two, usually conversational posts with a few long and thought out posts. I love reading whatever Loomis has to say, along with whatever comes out of Alan's mouth, God bless him."
Would've been fun to be a post whore, I used to be one. And then that one thread started...

Despite being mentioned in almost all of those - a true sign that you have reached forum immortality - I'd probably consider myself a "daily". There are certain days when I do check back more than once a day (like today for instance), but I try to check in at least once a day.6. The Dailies - "I'm on UD every day, usually for a few hours. I post here as often as I can within the few hours, but I like to make my posts count, so there's no one-liners from me! I often like to compare notes with Loomis on what types of silly stuff to talk about."
However, as regulars will know, I'm taken to disappearing for months at a time, during which point I become a Lurker. Hopefully, that won't happen again for some time, given that Disneyland brainwashed me and the spirit of Disney has possessed me once more.

I'm somewhere between that andEscapay wrote: 4. The Casual Poster - "I visit UD every week, but only post at least 10 times within the week. I hardly start topics, as I can't find anything I can think of worth talking about that's been talked about. I love reading whatever Loomis has to say, along with whatever comes out of Alan's mouth, God bless him."
11. The Odd One- "I visit UD frequently, and can be quite random sometimes. I don't always post, but sometimes when I do, my post contributes nothing if not to just make lightlyof/fun of/pure sarcasm out of the subject matter, but at other times I'm quite serious. Loomis even flames me now and then! He usually does it while I stare at him through the window during one of my stalker sprees."

Besides, I told you to put aloe on the burns before you climb up to my window again.

I'm a cross between the Lurker and the Acquaintance. I wish I posted more often, but I can't ever think of anything to say. When I do post, it's usually in the "What did you cook/bake today?" thread, as if anybody cares about what I eat.
I come on here every day, so I guess I'm more of an Acquaintance than a Lurker; which is good, because "Lurker" sounds like the moniker of a spy lying in ambush. "Acquaintance" has a much more honest ring to it.

I would have to go with 9.
Just Kidding.....
I'm more of a 6.
7. The Hourly - "I'm on UD at least once every hour that I'm awake, and I post as much as possible within each hour. I usually have conversational posts, though I'm known to have the occassional long post that people often read, quote, and converse upon for hours on end. I love creating threads because it means people are reading what I have to say! Loomis knows my real name."
If I was a 7 I would never go to bed...someone like Netty or Loomis....
