just because you have a reason for why you want to do it doesn't suddenly make it sincere.

it's forced and lazy.

you really shouldn't be even calling people lurkers until late in day one anyway, especually not people who have made a few content posts because yeah not everybody just shits their brain onto their keyboard (get with the times though, its the way to be)

like for 100% real the thread title tells who is lurking the most anyway, bif literally has the fewest posts in this thread, there's not even a point in discussing a broad range of lurkers as thoguh we're going to sway our way down to the buffet of potential lurker lynches because when yyou vote somebody for lurking you're by definition voting them for a lack of content as opposed to some discernible thing you can make a varied read on. In other words, anybody making a deal about lurkers is either doing so to have some discussion (either to start some real game talk or to look like they're with it if they're in fact scum) or they're just being silly. Lurking is one of the only things you can actually quantify in this game, no need to muddy it up.

Anywahy I sort of lost the plot there but there s this thing people do where they target people who post a little bit of stuff (soda and sniper) and call it lurking, while ignoring people who are actually posting nothing (sal and bif legitimately)

and its all dumb anyway because there's hardly even the time to lurk in this game yet people are just saying it because the game is called bif is a lurker haha now we're going to base everything on lurking you see

except bif is a constructured lurker and we can expect her to be lurking because as you point out that's the title of the loving game

so why would you want to use her as some sort of baseline for lurking? we can explain her behaviour. ...
