Guest Tinky Share Posted October 9, 2005 It took a long time to get my user name. All the ones I wanted were taken, so when I searched for ones that weren't taken through the search engine, I noticed that about 75 % of the user names I pulled up had 0 posts and were very old, over a year or two.

Mike 1 Share Posted October 10, 2005 Yes Tinky, that's how forums work.. a lot of people that sign up don't post.. it sucks but it's part of the deal.Maybe if the name you want is in use and the member is old but only has like 1 post, suppose you can ask for a name change.

narcissus 1 Share Posted October 10, 2005 The same goes for e-mail addresses. Try applying for one with Yahoo! or Hotmail, and I betcha yours will most likely be already taken. Sometimes it almost makes you wonder if people even use them - these e-mail accounts - anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dan 626 Share Posted October 12, 2005 Yeah, people can be a member for 10 years without ever posting for all I care. People can lurk for years sometimes before they end up posting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey. 1 Share Posted October 12, 2005 True they could be lurking around but I checked some of the Zero post members and most of them haven't even looked at the forums ala. "Last Active". Perhaps their Acne was cured on the spot to coming to these forums Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
T-ZoneGreaser 0 Share Posted October 20, 2005 Yeah, people can be a member for 10 years without ever posting for all I care. People can lurk for years sometimes before they end up posting. I lurked for a month, does that make me a bad guy? Oh by the way Dan, I just got your BP Gel, and its just AWESOME! I'll review it a bit later to see how it works in the long run, but so far its great! It goes on like a cream and absorbs like a gel, I luv it!
