A few times out of the million times I refresh lanysboard a day I'm not able to load the page due to too many requests. That has me wondering, just how many lurkers do we have around here? Is there a decent chunk of people who never even played on Lanys?

What's the ballpark figure on daily unique hits around here?

Are you a frequent lurker around here who rarely posts? If so, please come out of the shadows just this once to say hi. Did you play on Lanys? How did you find us?

About 500,000.

Just kidding, no idea. So lazy.

I've had it happen some mornings too. I always curse at Cak when it does. Not to his face, just under my breath.

Lanysboard.com is on a shared hosting plan with Cyberwurx llc, it happens time to time. If it keeps happening I will bitch and they will move our little piece of the internet to a bigger server.

I remember about this board once in awhile and pop on. Almost never post anymore, though...

I wish there were more sports fans to debate on the sports board. As much as we all disliked/hated Skycrasher, at least he posted there more than once a week...

I lurk here pretty often. Despite the low activity, still one of the more interesting boards I visit.

O trust me I don't want him back. I don't think anyone does. But I do lament the fact that there are very few posters in sports boards, and that makes me sad cause one thing I enjoy to do (whether I am right or wrong) is debate sports with other sports fans...

Someone made a comment something to the tune of "I wonder how the school you work for would like it if we sent them your comments on these boards" (paraphrased) and he freaked out. He wanted all of his posts to be erased, etc., and decided to leave the boards forever for fear of someone "eTelling" on him.

I like to post there about college football.

The sports forum has fallen due to the fact that of maybe 10 people that post there, we're interested in about 6 different sports, heh. I don't really care for most pro sports, and a lot don't really care for college. /shrug

I guess I am a lurker. I played on Lanys for many years, but quit to make the push to finish my schooling about 2005 or 6. I never really posted much because I was worried about the "skycrasher effect" of posting. However, now that I have my job, I feel less and less worried about being me. I started reading this forum to fill in for the mid-day distraction the RoA boards used to provide.

I come here fairly often....don't post much. Ever since I made a massive arse of myself I've tended to sit back and listen to both sides of the discussion.

You guys have some good political discussions going on.

It's a lot more fun when people post and make a massive ass of themselves! Get back to it! :)

I've always been a lurker. I've lurked these boards for a very long time. I enjoy the banter and interesting topics of conversations for the most part :)
