What are you?

pinkshades05 · January 2013

With all the talk about AE's and lurkers...what do you consider yourself? Regular, occasional poster, lurker, AE? And feel free to add to this list in case I forgot a title.

I'm definitely a regular. Sometimes I feel like I'm neglecting my DD when I am on here but it's only when she is playing so happily by herself or napping...at least that is my excuse!

I'm occasional poster too. But I've learned so much from this board! Being a FTM sometimes I feel like I don't have much to contribute. Also, alot of times, I'm late to the conversation. By the time I'm reading a post, everyone has already moved on.

This is me too.

same here! I feel like I posted a lot more when I was pregnant because I had more time. These days, I work full time, and when I get home, I spend most of my time chasing after my very active DS. When he goes to sleep, then I use that time to clean up his mess of toys and mess of food in the kitchen, get bottles ready for daycare, tend to my 2 crazy dogs, and catch my breath from the day. I do read posts regularly...just don't always have time to post regularly.

BrownMa · January 2013

When I was pregnant I was lurker once and a while I'd post, when I first had Aiden I was on here all the time I had a ton of questoons and you girls were awesome. When I went back to work I became a lurker bc it's a pain to post from my phone. Once winter break came I've become a regular once I got back ill probably lurk again :

Jlobebe2012 · January 2013

I am an occasional poster for sure. I wish I could be more active but I work full time, and I was going to school full time last fall, and will be part time this spring. I love reading posts while I pump or eat my 15 min lunch at my desk so I am guilty of reading more than contributing, and I also feel like I "know" you ladies a lot more than you know me.

andreabean0929 · January 2013

I consider myself more of a lurker. I do post every once in a while though.

Lawren · January 2013

I consider myself a regular.

Lawren:
I consider myself a regular.

Ditto, I have days where I'm posting like crazy (slow at work) and days where I won't post at all, but I think in the grand scheme of things I would qualify as regular.

jldubb0626 · January 2013

Regular

bikitybinx · January 2013

Occasional poster, although I am here a lot througout the day. I just don't have time to respond to everything that I'd like to.

ALane1128 · January 2013

Lurker till after Jackson was born and now occasional poster

Jchirico · January 2013

I think I'm an occasional poster. I'd probably respond to a lot more posts, but Jen usually says exactly what I'm about to first (but in a nicer and more eloquent way) so I don't usually have anything of value to add! Its all good though, I'm on my iPad 99% of the time and typing long posts is a pain!

HappyToBe2012 · January 2013

I think I'm somewhere between a regular and an occasional poster. Though some days I feel like I'm just lurking around since I hate typing on my phone.

ssimon621 · January 2013

I think I am an occasional poster, moving towards being a regular. As pp's stated, by the time I get to a post and get ready to respond someone has already answered the question. I'm more likely to post when no one or only a couple people have responded. Unless it's a GTKY or something like that.

coybig · January 2013

occasional poster. I try to post more, but figure half of my posts are unnecessary.

If my posts are supposed to be necessary, then I'm useless.

Favority · January 2013

Lurker, turned occasional poster a month or two ago. Trying to post more, but like others, I sometimes feel late to the party. I definitely get more out of the board now that I actually participate though.

NatesLady1309 · January 2013

Somewhere between regular and occasional poster. I guess...

Mistifier · January 2013

I'd say I'm an occasional poster. I go through spurts. I post when I feel I can add something to the conversation.

This.

Regular, but barely more than a lurker. While I post a lot, not much thought goes into what I say. No time. I don't think I'm very helpful.

If I see that you've posted in a thread I tend to look at it, and it seems like thought goes into them so you're doing a good job of fooling me at least Stick out tongue But even though I think we might differ on certain things I value your input.

It's interesting to see how other people classify themselves. There are definitely a few who said they consider themselves occasional posters that I would consider regs but I guess it all depends on your definition of a regular and who's posts you tend to notice.

I would say I'm a regular, though only in the past couple of months. It took me a while to feel comfortable posting.

This is I feel but I still feel I'm more of an occasional poster.

You need to come out and play more. 99% of the time I agree with what you say and enjoy your posts.

pennyandandy · January 2013

Regular, and dang proud of it! Wink

jmccall79 · January 2013

I guess I'd consider myself to be a regular. Though I don't start a lot of threads, I do try to chime in on things that are relevant...and that tends to be at least 1 post a day, obviously some days are way more.

SweetTurnip:
I used to be a fairly regular poster, but after DD was born and I joined a FB group (for a different board) and have stopped coming to TB as much. I still lurk, but now I feel weird about posting.

Just jump in! The more the merrier Smile

2chatter · January 2013

Hoping I am a lurker turned occassional poster. I am trying to post more. I get a lot out of this board, and nothing beats it for down time while pumping or on conference calls I have to listen to but cannot really do anything else on workwise!

Shawnee11507 · January 2013

I think of myself as a regular- I'm here daily and respond on a couple posts each day most of the time. I only post my own threads occasionally. If someone else has said something that I agree with I usually won't make a ditto post.

I don't know how much people recognize my screen name. I feel kind of invisible most of the time. I never get called out (in a good way) or a ton of responses on my threads. I try to be helpful wherever I can.

MollySm · January 2013

I think I'm a regular in terms of having been here since my BFP, and I think most people know who I am. But I rarely start posts myself, and post less often when I am on my phone.

NatnDyl · January 2013

I was an occasional but moving toward regular. Its true that you get out what you put into this board.

lancyjo · January 2013

I'm totes an AE. Stick out tongue

I'm the "Queen bee" regular, or so I'm told. Stick out tongue

Although, if I don't quit getting the bum computer at the branches I'm floating to, I'll end up as just a lurker. Darn work interfering with bump... gah!

karleegirl · January 2013

I'm A regular. I can't post a lot during the day because of this crazy job but I'm on a decent bit.

you are definitely a regular.

mamatobe2012 · January 2013

I regularly read the board but post occasionally.

runrinserepeat · January 2013

I consider myself a regular, though I'll be back to lurker during the day from now on.

this and I usually feel like I'm late joining as I rarely can get on until matthew goes to bed and post when I have something to add that hasn't already been stated.

Meganequine · January 2013

I almost didn't post because I'm super late in responding. . I consider myself a regular reader and ocassional poster.

I've been around since my BFP, but I'm not sure anyone would know exactly who I was- one of these days I intend to add something to my siggy to make me recognizable.

laura.noel · January 2013

Kind of like Shawnee- I feel like an invisible regular. I am on here and comment all the time, but I tend not to get a lot of attention.

I notice your posts! I would bet most of us feel unnoticed at times (I definitely didn't think anyone would notice when I was gone for about a week and was surprised to see Sooner ask about me) but if people agree with you then they're not going to respond and say "ditto" all of the time, especially on non-controversial threads.
