S.Marie Posted November 9, 2019 Report Posted November 9, 2019 Hi everyone! I pride myself on being very social when I meet people in person, but online, I’m a certified lurker . I read the message boards, take notes , and have learned so much from everyone on this blog (thanks @Matt for this awesome platform) but I rarely make a post or comment. Maybe it’s because everyone has already said what I was thinking (and y’all don’t need to see my “ditto” response )... Maybe it’s because I can’t come up with any interesting new questions or topics that are worth posting ... Maybe it’s because I’m afraid that my post will be the equivalent of the kid sitting alone at the lunch table in a crowded middle school cafeteria ... Soooooooo... This post is dedicated to all of the lurkers out there just like me! Say hi, hit like, or drop a comment of your choosing below! Or don’t. You are still loved and welcomed here!

RCVoyager Posted November 11, 2019 Report Posted November 11, 2019 I've never posted on a message board in my life. Only a nerd would do that. Oh shoot, I guess I'm busted by my rating. Just kidding. This is a great place for information about all of cruising... not just Royal Caribbean. I appreciate the atmosphere as well as the info. Vwjo, ddmcruiser, USCG Teacher and 2 others 3 2 Quote
Pookie Posted November 11, 2019 Report Posted November 11, 2019 I have been forcing myself to not lurk...in lurking at the number of views vs the number of replies, lurkers seem to be the majority... Big Tule and RWDW1204 1 1 Quote
