Something like this giveaway lets you know just how many "lurkers" are out there. Answer: ALOT! LOL

Coming from one of the "lurkers" you do realize that I got an email invitation from this board to join this contest. The purpose of this type of contest is to draw in new people to both this site and to Homebrew Supply. So thanks for the warm welcome.

 

[ibglowin]

You have made 4 post in ~8 years. We would love to welcome you, why not start a thread and introduce yourself to the forum so we can all get to know you!

It is difficult to tell "tone," both for Mike and for EJA, in this medium. Personally, when Mike referred to lurkers, I took this as a positive statement, like "Look, everyone, there are lots of people that read this forum that we don't know much about! Isn't that great that our audience is bigger than we thought?"

EJA, I (sincerely) would indeed like to welcome you to the forum! Hope to hear more from you.

I agree with MIKE, they came out of the woodwork .I'm all for new people but what about the people who support this forum all the time. Just my oppion.

 

[ibglowin]

Thus the use of emoticons when in doubt and in this instance a nice heartfelt "LOL" was used….

I missed all the action.....lol

 

[vacuumpumpman]

I think this is a good way to get people signed up to this forum.

I hope that they got over the fear of signing up, so they can start by introducing themselves or just ask any question or concerns about winemaking in general.

Looking forward to seeing more posts soon -

 

[brottman]

In addition, there are likely a whole other group of people just as big that did not sign up for the contest but still browse the forum. I think our crowd is definitely bigger than we think

 

[ibglowin]

I was not making any judgements with my post. The Urban Dictionary defines a lurker as:

lurk·er

/ˈlərkər/

noun

a person who lurks, in particular a user of an Internet message board or chat room who does not participate.

I have to agree with Mike. I have EJA's post several times and it sure sounds like he was being sarcastic with "thanks for the welcome". Lol I got the idea he didn't like getting the email invite.
