Lurker Poll!!!! Anonymous lurkers come in!!!!

stoneycakes

Yes, that's how many exclamation points the title needed.

stoneycakes

Now I'm curious.  This is even more fun than a lurker call-out because you can just answer the poll anonymously if you're shy.

stoneycakes

I'm just gonna hijack my own thread here and say that I love classic Sesame Street.  Everyone in our family is sick right now and it's saving the day!

I am a between, but feel like I'm becoming a reg....

lovelainie

I mostly lurk, but I'm trying to come out of creepy lurkerdom.

stoneycakes

There are 15 votes and 42 views!  My gosh, lurkers!  You won't even answer an anonymous poll?

I feel the same way about myself and I have no idea if my reg status will go up or down when M arrives

Mine went way up.  But I became a SAHM.  I never had access to a laptop at my old job.

But maybe I'll be all, "I don't need those CD ladies anymore. Turns out that I am a CD GODDESS!!!"

Yeah but you know you need us for more than just CDing advice

I've only posted a few times with specific questions, since I didn't have any experience to contribute. But now that we've got the babe, I imagine I'll be posting more.

I'd like to start posting more. We're in love with cloth diapers, especially my husband (who would have thought!). Your advice has been invaluable. Thank you all so much!

Boo for everyone being sick but classic Sesame Street is the best!

I'm not sure what it is about kids shows…but they seem all brain-washy to me.  Seriously 

We have put Sesame Street on and M LOVES IT.  anything else on TV he couldn't care about.  That leads me to think that there's some hidden message in it, reprogramming our brains

@gnomesweetgnome congrats! I lurk on the adoption board all the time because I one day hope to foster to adopt.

Anyway, I lurk frequently and occasionally respond. LO is 11 weeks and we have CD'd since we got home.

freezorburn

Way back when I posted a poll on how many different kinds of diapers were in your stash we got nearly 100 responses. C'mon, lurkers! We know you're out there!

I have always wondered how long / how often you have to post to be considered a regular.
Thoughts?

Haha of course.

That seems to be the case on most boards. The line between active and regular can only be defined by others , so how do you know? :-/ 8-}

We'll have @CLLDLL put it on a spreadsheet for us  FWIW I would consider you a regular.

blonde151188

I've posted here before, haven't lurked in forever because I'm mostly mobile and it's so much easier to just access my bmb from there. I plan on trying to be around more.

I feel like I'm a solid "here and there" poster

Bwahaha the spreadsheet sounds like something my BMB would do and then have some huge butthurt drama about all the people that got left off.

I like this board so much better- I feel special that you think I'm a reg :x

He he!  I'll get right on that.  There'll be columns to check for things like whether you know how to prep hemp, how much advice you given about wash routines, how many critique my stash posts you've contributed to, how many times you've been called out, and of course how many of the infamous posts you know about like TrendyBumz and Buckeyes.  We'll count checks & decide how many checks you need to be a "reg"!!  I'm so nerdy!

FWIW I would put you in the reg category to!

Aurora_Borealis

@CLLDLL, don't forget a column for if you know what MK means. And, yes, TrendyBumz is an absolute must.

(I voted myself a regular even though I'm too lazy to have a real siggy. I hope that's okay, ITK).

Into+the+Kitty

@Aurora_Borealis even though yours is just a ticker, I recognize it.

Also, Stoney where is my SS 'I know where you live'

Chichigo

I lurked until baby boy was born. I read the faqs and didn't have any unique questions. But this was already one of my favorite boards because people here are helpful, friendly, and fun.

OMG I had to stifle my laughter at this because I just put DS to bed!

stoneycakes

@CLLDLL is it sad that, after you described it in detail, I kind of wish we had a spreadsheet?  LOL.  I think I would do well in all of the categories except for critiquing stashes.  I find those overwhelming. I'm afraid I'll tell them they're good to go and they'll be changing their newborn for the first time and be like "OMG, Stoney told me I was all good and now I don't have any wipes!!!  How am I going to get all this shit off my baby?!!!"

stoneycakes

Triple post for the hat trick!  Guise...what about all the lurkers who are so lurky they don't even have bump accounts with which to respond to polls?

This, so I put myself in the here and there category.

theluckiest9

I voted lurker who has posted a few times. I don't feel like I have much to add as a FTM who doesn't have an outside baby yet.

Part lurker … part poster.

OMG!! Oh, an I don't even read stash critiques. My brain can't handle it.

me neither!!! Every time I see a "critique my stash" I click it so it's not hilighted anymore, than quickly go back to the threads.  I can barely keep all my own dipes straight, how can I categorize someone else's 50 changes 

lol

I love the lurker call-outs. 

And ITK is going to think I'm an imposter, because I changed my siggy.

I honestly have no idea who you are. What did it used to be?

Robi1

I post here and there I guess. Sometimes I'm on a lot and other times I'm gone for a while, so I don't think I will reach "reg" status, but I love this board! 

Aurora_Borealis

I kind of like the 'critique my stash' posts.

This is why our board is awesome. I kind of like critiqueing stashes. Sometimes. But I skip a lot of the ON solution Qs. And all of the "how to CD with an FL" Qs.Those give me a headache. I don't know why. They just do.

knittinlins

Lurker mainly because I am only in acquiring mode right now with the little guy not due until next month. Maybe I will post more when I have actual experiences!

Into+the+Kitty

Lol, why do the lurkers who are still pregnant not post more? In case you didn't realize, we don't typically stay on topic here, and we talk about a lot more than just CDing your babies.

Maybe it's the pop CD quizzes I put at the end of all of my banana sandwich posts?
