Nope, I meant "Read through this, it's light reading, fun, informative:".

As the poster was unaware of what being identified as a "Lurker" indicated to the poster, a more thorough indoctrination of the various "poster types" would be light reading, fun and informative.

I did not tutor the poster on how to use the search functions of the link as he has not indicated in his previous post(s) he is not familiar with searching a forum.

You can spoon feed 'em or take them to the lake and let them cast their own net.

Which includes:

      Don't just jump in to the forums spouting off reams and reams your amazing knowledge of the intricacies of World of Warcraft. In Binary.


      Lurk around a bit first and read some threads to see whether or not that's even remotely the sort of thing people there would be interested in.

Excellent!  I could do without the accent, but a good primer for forums.

Just pretend you are watching Monty Python.

Of course my favorite skit is "The Argument Sketch": "I'd like to have an argument".
