I don't think I've been a thread killer, but when I first joined the nest, I did not lurk at all and just jumped right in and starting posting. I didn't understand the politics of the board and people hated me, lol. So I took a break for a few months, lurked, and came back and it was much better. I still feel like people don't really "know" me here, even though it's been about 2 years now.
When I first started posting it was like that for me (and sometimes it still is, lol) but I decided to go all, look at all the fucks I give, and kept posting anyway.
Holla. Not that I was cute and popular before, but was somewhat regular on MM, then changed my name, and started posting here a bit more. Now I am no one on TWO boards!
I don't feel like a thread killer, but I feel invisible.
Sometimes I think I'm funny or insightful, and if no one acknowledges or quotes me, I feel invisible.
Also, I feel bad for the last poster in this thread, whoever that may be.
I'll bet it winds up being me! But I lurked long enough to know that I was going to be the thread killer for a while. Now I just have a goal to make it to where Ash is now lol!
Yes, I feel like this. When I post (with at least 6 hours of delay), the discussion is over. I "think" I am funny from time to time, but perhaps not if I have to write it down.
I am really new and the few times I've responded, I've gotten nothing! I get the vibe that intros aren't the favored way to join ML but maybe I'll just have to...
