Wait . . . we're allowed to post?

Seriously, I keep thinking I should be more involved . . . at least so I can get past the silly limit that keeps me from having an avatar.

But it somehow seems too . . . social.  People kidding, chatting each other up, interacting as if friends . . . it took me a long time to wean my real life friends from all that social stuff; don't know if I want to start it here.  It seems a big bother, what with having to care, and actually read, what others are saying. 

No, I guess I'll hover in the less-than 0.01 posts per day for a tad longer.

aww i remeber being a lurker
it was not that long ago honest
i had a similar vew point to you back then
manly i was shy
well that plane went out the window wonce some silly person gave me instructions to go to the bar and fined weird and ask them questions about what they do there
now look i am on the first page and thretering some long time mebers posisions 

I'm not much on the shy department . . . I'm more concerned about adding yet another activity to my full plate.  Between my blog, work, wanting to write, my photography hobby, and wanting to eat, there is little time left for recurring activities.


That said, I had a ball on a Firefly board I belong to (The Antisocial Bastards), and made friends who still keep in touch.  That board was hurt by FaceBook becoming popular.


We'll see how this goes, and thanks for the encouragement. 

You have to have 100 posts before you can upload your own avatar.  Welcome to the forum!

Having just finished Ghost Story, you know what would be neat . . . if the visibility on a personal avatar would be the number of posts as a percentage (i.e. I've got 7 posts as of this writing, so it would be 7% visible).

At the 100th post, the whole avatar would be visible. 

Yeah, I don''t know how to make that work; just thinking out loud.

(ETD: 5 posts; apparently I can't count)

welcom to the fourm
oh 100 is easy wonce they catch you in there net 
just stay away from the punch okay

Yeah, I could do that.  The question is whether I should.  New to Dresden (read all 13 books in the past two months), and I obviously liked them, but will likely just lurk for a while. 


Although the fanfic part looks interesting (I dabble a bit in writing for fun). 


We'll see

Just wondering . . . I see the option for no avatar, or the option to choose from existing.  I don't see the option to either load my own or use Gravatar.


Not a big deal, but wondering if I'm missing something obvious.
