Irregular or Regular

MissDemeanor

After it was brought up in another discussion, I can't help but wonder who's lurking? I know we've done this before, but let's vote again

**The 4th option should be "I very rarely post"

I feel like a regular. So that's what I voted.
I kind of feel weird that strangers actually lurk the board after this long. Who also mentioned that? I think it was @Mevaroo‌.

Anyways, :-h lurkers. We know you're out there.

MissDemeanor

2 lurking votes, no explanations. In the 20 minutes since I posted this. I'm confused!!!

I've been around since about July 2013, but rarely post now. I used to post more (hardly a reg) but just can't keep up.
I like to read through posts every once in a while to gather tidbits of helpful information, will offer advice if what I have to say hasn't yet been mentioned (which rarely happens by the time I get to the post), and like to generally just come here to give me something to read before bed.
I know it's creepy to just read and not post, especially since I feel like I know a lot of you simply since I have been reading the posts... And now I sound even creepier.
Carry on X_X

Interesting to think that we're bedtime reading

Thanks for the explanation @cynthi213

Now I want to know who said they used to be a reg but aren't now and who isn't a reg but we should know their name.

Also, I thought this was going to be a poll about AF. :-??

I used to be a regular (I think) but I don't have as much time now, so I post way less often than I used to. I read and lovetit all the time and post when I can. I can't keep up with the randoms and I think most of the regulars post there a lot.

Ditto! This exactly.

You know what amazes me, is how people can lurk but not lovetit things. I never thought much about it until the other day when I saw a strange avatar had lovetitted something I said. It was someone who had posted just a few times over a year or so. That was interesting.

i was semiregular. then i couldnt keep up and would lurk occasionally. now im back and spend more time trying to keep up and be involved than i want to admit. like, first thing i do in the morning.  X_X

MissDemeanor

You know what is surprising me? How many regulars are wondering if they are? Yes! You are! I know all of you! We all wear pink on Wednesday.

I thought it was going to be about poop.

Yeah, this... I know all of you too. I agree that bepandnick and inluv aren't around as much.
@anji1820‌ You seem to be around regularly to me but it could be I think that because we're kinda in the same area and Giants!

They must have serious restraint. I can't help but love tit everything when I am reading!

Me either, I lovetit like crazy.

What's wrong with that? That's what I do too.

Potty.
Coffee.
Turn on news.
Bump.

Duh.

Lol, DH being a first year med student + having moved to a new city where I know no one + sleeping baby + procrastinating on chores/housework = your creepy, friendly, BMB lurker who needs better nocturnal activities

Rosie137

I chose regular

I'm awful at lurking on other boards. I love tit all of the things. They probably check their notifications and think, "Who the fvck is this breadpudding chick? And why does she keep giving me love tits?"

Oh well. #teamlovetits

ramfan05

I also voted regular. I'm pretty sure I am.

It's also the first thing I do in the morning. I set my nook up on the faucet in the bathroom so I can read while I do my hair and makeup.

Those of you who bump first thing are such losers. I walk downstairs, get my pump stuff together, start pumping, then I read randoms and other stuff while I pump. Next, I let my pump run a little longer, you know, long after no more milk is coming out. not because I've been sucked into F14 but because I love the pumping sensation that much.

flightview

Used to be a regular...trying to keep it up again! I love tit when I can, and I'm trying to be more active!

I've lurked forever - been on & off since early pregnancy. Tried to get in the swing of posting a couple of times but between full time work (I don't post from work because of tracking) & by the time I get the kids to bed the conversations are usually over. Plus it's a tight knit group & any time I started posting I'd feel like the random person butting in to the conversation (none of you made me feel that way, just personal). I stick around because you guys are generally open & honest & I don't have a whole lot of mom friends I relate to. It's very possible that I was the one who did the random Lovetit. I think I remember doing it once just don't know who to.

iwubrory

@irisheyez123‌ if it was you, I actually liked it. I don't remember what I said but I was all, "Awesome, that was such a funny/true/smart? Thing to say that I got a lurker to lovetit!"

It's the little things

alphaphi98

I voted for "I very rarely post". I bump and lurk often but don't post much. Busy with work and 2under2. I think the regulars put me in the dog house, but I still enjoy coming out to bump when I have time.

The polls are fine. The randoms are too long for me to get into. By the time I wake up and check, it's pages long already on west coast. I love HDBD and seeing all the cuties.

I just took DS for his 9 month checkup today. Can't believe how fast they're growing. I set up his 12 month appt too. Can't believe they're turning ONE soon. I'm looking forward to the holidays with baby's 1st thanksgiving and xmas.

irisheyez123

Lol. To be honest, I didn't realize people could see who clicked on the Love tit button. When I saw your post on this thread I was a bit embarrassed just in case but I'm glad to hear you didn't get the "creepy rando liking my post" vibe if it was me

I'm a lurker!  Hello

I used to be really active on TB with my older daughter's BMB but we moved over to FB and now I mostly hang out there.  I have a Feb 14 baby but most everyone from my Sept 11 group has second babies as well, plus it is less about worrying if my baby is on track and more about us being friends now.  I wander over here when I can't fall asleep and FB is dead (like now).

TessyMessy

@ramfan05‌ I thought this was about poop too. FTR I am a regular regular. ">

Dexter&11

I think I'm a regular....if not I'm definitely a regular lurker

MamaAllison

I voted regular that doesn't hang out much anymore. Life has been significantly more challenging as a working mom of two. This school year plus medical issues with the girls plus other crappy stuff equals no time for bumping. This will probably be my only post in F14 this week!

ramfan05

@RosiePeare‌ so nice to see you pop in! I've thought about you and hoped you were doing well! Hope your school year is going well and that life in general is good! Signed, Creepy internet stranger (I mean well, really!)

tangerinemachine

Regular lurker, love titter, starter of some polls, a giver of hugs when needed and a sometimes poster when I vaguely think I might have an answer for you and rarely open the daily threads even though they are intriguing

SuzyQq02

Hi @RosiePeare‌!

I definitely don't post as much as I used to, but I think at one point I might have been considered a reg? Life has just been beyond insane lately. I can't keep up with random and feel like I miss a lot of what's going on with people!

djtippietoes

I've been wondering where you went @rosiepeare!  I'd say regular though I cannot keep up with the random thread for the life of me.

I also thought this was about pooping - and I'm not regular there.

Nikkijo1022

I'm not sure where id fall I joined the day of my BPF and was quite regular during pregnany. Issues with LO and returning to work took me off bump for a while and now I'm back and post occasionally/ read a lot. I like that many of you are going through the same things I am. So I wouldn't be a regular, but I do like hanging out!

Same. I never got the hang of making a big profile. I'm limited in personal information that I can share because of H's job. But I love coming here and reading posts. It makes me feel normal, especially rants about ILs. I feel like by the time I get around to responding that what I'd like to say has been said.

shellbell3845

Oh, you know me. I just lurk.

I've been around since summer 2013, but I was slow to start to participate. I don't think I ever started a thread/poll until after LO was born.

It's nice to see some old familiar people popping up here.

This. I was looking through an old thread -- maybe from Jan? And it made me realize how many people don't hang out anymore.

Firefly9

I usually Bump from work (shhh), but have had too many days off (sick days, doctor appointment, surgeries, having to stay home with DS1 after surgery, dentist, and two fun days off) that when I AM at work, I'm too busy.

Still convinced we have one or two long-con fakes here. It would be naive to think otherwise! Creepy all the same.

This scares the crap out of me!
