To get into the lurk report one should have the thread at the top 10(? or) positions in the forum when you log on to the forum?

Hi, It's me again! First in line as usual http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

After reading the Last few reports, I do indeed like the new format. It's clean simple and well done.

This week I just have one minor eyesore! the lava lamps are running too fast! (If you like I can slow down the anim and send it to you!)

Keep up the great work! Cheers! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

Hi.
Here is some mixed response, my thoughts only and no real truth:

The appereance of the Lurk report has improved dramaticly, but I think the content has worsened.

I don't think I see that much new information in it, this might be becourse I surf the forum several times every day and don't really qualify as a lurker.
What I'd like to see is a short summary of the popular threads, what has been written in the "MOO3 is out" thread for example. I don't read all the threads, only thos that interest me.
I do realize that to sum up the popular threads the work going into the Lurk report woul multiply very much.
Perhaps you could use some sort of temporal tech to take yourself out of phase with our time continuum and soo extensively check all Posts during an entire workday, spend another day writing it down and then return to our time frame without loosing more than a few minutes!
Is that a good suggestion?

Still, I read the report with great anticipation to see who get's into the lurk report, the happening of the week http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

Ruatha, <font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">I only 'control' the content minutely! I report what is there. I could scan the entire 'Forum' for all the 'New' threads! But, then what do I take out to make room for all those? My intent is to give anyone a small look into the threads on the 'Forums', that are active. Sorry, I can not please 'everyone'. I do the best I can. I might thing about adding some sort of synopsis of '1 or 2' of the 'New' threads. We will see. Thanks, for the comments!

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

Hi again.
Despite my critisism I still think the Lurk report is the best Lurk report we have http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Keep up the good job, if you continue the way you're doing now I'll continue reading it.

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

Awww man, no more lurk report. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon9.gif I am sad to see it go mlmbd, you did great work with it. It was enjoyable to see it grow from 'infancy' to what it is now.
I know it is alot of work so I can understand why you are doing this.
Hopefully someday it will come back once more. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

mlmbd,
I have always enjoyed your report.
Out of respect, I have avoided cluttering your thread.

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

Aaaaah Man! I was busy sending stuff to Aaron and missed making the first post to coment on the latest Lurk Report.

..As usual you have done a great job! I'm sorry to see that you're putting the 'report' on hold indefinately, but I for one do understand. (I recently put my avatar thread on the back burner due to having less free time!)

Your 'Lurk Report' might be on hold, but I know you'll still hanging around in the other threads. So, I'm sure I'll see you all over the place! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

Have a Great Day, Cheers!

Re: Lurk Report HERE
 

Hey hey! I'm top on the list, but totally not what I expected it for!

I was sure it would be the 6 revisions of P&N PBW in two days, if I got in at all http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

"hehe, lets wait just long enough for him to upload the a new revision before telling him about another little must-have tweak" http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

IMO, the Lurk Report has become one of the primary features of these Forums, as big as the cantina thread, even.
It will be sad to see it go.
