Thread: Ultimate lurker?

  1. #1

    Ultimate lurker?

    I've been on here over 10 years with only 57 posts while visiting pretty much daily the whole time. I'm not sure there is any honor in this title but I'm proud none-the-less. Who knows maybe this will be the start of a posting binge. I actually have a name that car post for an odd car I saw earlier today that stumped me.

    So can anyone beat my anemic .02 posts per day over 10 years?

    Either you're a really quiet guy or those must have been the most amazing 57 posts ever.

    Probably signed on in 1999. Soon afterward sold his VW. Then 9 years later buys another VW, and signs on again.

    Maybe a mod can look into how many times he logged on in the last year or so.

    No credit for you Ultimate lurker.

    I CALL BS.

    i might be close

    I am generally pretty quiet but mostly just lazy. In my 10 years I've realized that if I wait an hour or so someone else will post exactly what I was thinking. I'm grateful for the knowledge I've gained and the laughs I've had but mostly I just enjoy seeing cool cars and hearing people talk about them.

    VR6 or 1.8t? Not sure if you were asking what I drive or which I prefer? I drive 4.0L Ranger and I guess if I want to win I prefer a 1.8t but if I want to enjoy the drive VR6.

    A college friend of mine may have you beat.

    His username is beatnik (Beatnik?) & he's been on here for ~10 years (as have I) & I don't think he has EVER posted. He usually just follows build threads for really sick project vw's, especially ones built by Vancouver area locals like LostBoyScout etc.

    I did buy an '88 GTI 16V in '99 then sold it, but I've been coming here ever since. Still love VWs just haven't owned one in a while. I usually don't bother to log in since I don't post but honestly in the last 10 years I'd say I've visited the site at least 5 or 6 days out of 7.

    Dunno, sounds a little fishy.

    Why would a self proclaimed ultimate lurker, break his silence after 10 years?

    Don't believe it a bit.

    I was inspired by the forum statistic posts earlier this year so I looked and saw I was nearing 10 years, figured I might as well wait til then to break the silence

    Re: (Ethano1)

    For the amount of time I have spent on Vortex since I joined, I might be an ultimate lurker. I really just like to read the posts here.

    Re: (Ethano1)

    Well, im actually the 8th user. I have too many posts to qualify as a lurker, but i was like the 1200th user from the original ones.

    The vortex has like 12 years i think....

    Yup, we have ANOTHER ultimate lurker, which dethroned the self proclaimed Ultimate Lurker.

    OP, bow down, you have been dethroned.

    Not to have one of my first post showcase me being the usual vortex jerk, but check your math. CamOlympiakos has almost been setting his keyboard on fire with .16 posts per day.
