I know you're there. Stop just reading and join the fun. Once you start posting you won't quit.
PS - What brought this post on was noticing that the site was on pace to break 10 gigabytes of transfer this month. I like that.
:D

Sorry for doing so much lurking lately. At work I usuallly just swing by here, check out the new action then leave. Not much time for posting. When I'm slow at work, I can post but not very often.

Well, I meant all the people who view the site but have never registered. But if it lit a fire under some other people's rear ends, that's good too. ;)

I only posted 24 times on the 7th. I'm ashamed.

I've been lurking alot lately, sorry yall. Everything has been crazy here recently, and usually all I have time to do is check up on the forums. Things have been calming down though, so hopefully I'll be able to post more often. :)

Hi my name's SHC....I've never posted but I read all the time....no really....that insanly huge number to the left there means NOTHING!!! :crazy: LOL.
You know, before the crash at least, there are even some registered users that have never posted that I have seen online late at night before. I've always thought about PMing them when they are on and busting them lurking but didn't want to be any more obnoxious than I already am. But if you are advocating that kind of obnoxiousness..... :beatup: ;)

It just may take something like a PM to get someone going. Caniac is right - once you start....
Once you get started and find out what a non-threatening environment this can be, you feel much more comfortable posting.
I'll probably never get to be an All-Star, but here's to getting off the Lowell Bench.

I admit, I am a lurker. Part of the reason is that when I come to this site from work, I take the chance of being booted due to a phone call.(unless its after 11pm and mostly I'm too tired to type coherently) We only have dial up at work and only one phone line. At home, we have dsl , but my computer is so ancient and slow that it takes forever for a page to download. so.... I lurk. Plus I'd like to become more knowledgeable about hockey before I try to talk about it, however, I see that THAT doesn't stop some of you!!! I'll probably never be anything better than a Lowell Bencher , but that suits me just fine. Later... Sandy

I usually am at work and prone to interruption, which is why there's little postage. However, this forum has really helped me understand the game better, and to have a better appreciation for the 'fringe' benefits (Ladies' Thread! :kiss: ).
I promise to try to post more often, if y'all want to listen. :evil:

Okay-Yes I admit I do more lurking than posting-but that is how i learn. I am starting to get better though. I have others interested and involved and won't name anyone though- ;)
I really wish i had access to a computer during the day at work or something, but that just isn't happening.
Romney
05-22-2003, 08:07 PM
Hey BSR, you don't mean me do you? :angel: It is a great place to learn and become intrigued by all of the details in this great game of hockey. I take comfort in the fact that "cult" members here are kind and supportive.
Don't worry though. Summer is almost here and I'm sure I'll have plenty of free time on my hands. I can't stay out in the sun (or at your pool) all day :cool: . I might have to cook a meal or two this summer.
Bridgestreetrun
05-22-2003, 08:24 PM
Okay Romney-maybe i better start working on the pool then-that is when the temperature warms a little more and the frost warnings stop. Time to get back to lurking
hey Bridge.... if you're looking for a suitable av, many of the chickies here can whip you up one in no time. :)

Thanks- I can be computer challenged and that has really prevented me from doing it so far. I would really appreciate any help. :spin:

Perhaps I could fix an av for you Bridge...what exactly do you want in it? :)

While you are working on an avatar for BridgeStreetRun, would you mind helping me out as well? I'd love to have the picture from last year when Erik picked up Bates after one of Bates' goals in the playoffs. My avatar is just too small, everything else I try is too big.
You guys/gals are the best!!!

Sure thing...unfortunately, I might not have the pic you desire Romney. :sad: But fear not, I'm sure if I can't find it on Google's image search, then someone here might have it.
Anyway, you'll have an avatar ASAP too. :)
Romney

Thanks, Stormbringer. I appreciate the help. We "cult" members need to stick together.

Romney and I are trying to come up with avatars that we could use and we could still be good sisters. Thanks Stormbringer. ;)
Romney
05-24-2003, 05:26 PM
Great minds think alike. What can I say? I had no idea that you wanted the same one for your avatar (although I should have known better). I'm sure we'll both be satisfied with the help of Stormbringer.
Stormbringer
05-24-2003, 08:12 PM
Well, be it the same image or something else. let me know if any of you change your mind about what you want for your avatar. In the meantime, I guess I'll go looking for the desired pic and also ask does anyone have the pic of Erik picking up Bates? :)

Not sure if this is the pic you meant, but it fit the description so I avatared it.. hard to make them so small! Anyway, yours if you want it:

If Shell's avatar is not one you desire Romney or Bridge, I just made an avatar of what looks a lot like the sort of pic you requested...

Thanks, Shell. This is the one I meant (also what BSR wanted, but I didn't know that). In an attempt to be different, I will try to use the pic from Stormbringer. I'm having trouble because the message on my profild page says "must be less that 6KB". Not sure how to 'shrink' it. Any thoughts?
Thanks for the article on Erik. The sign in support of Erik and his fellow Canes was in a park on the main street in Oswego (Bridge Street) and was great. If I had a jersey it would have been on the statue in the park.
A local businessman, and friend of the Coles, donated many Hurricanes flags which were also hung downtown. We are all so proud of Erik, we went a bit Cup Crazy. We can't wait to do it again.

Try the pic now Romney...I shrinked it so it'll hopefully work.
great new av, Bridge~! :D
