How to Catch a Lurker..
 
Lurkers by definition love to 'watch', so all you have to do to catch a Lurker is give them lots and lots of eye-candy. Dangle it in front of them and they won't be able to resist comming out of the woodwork!

That's the secret behind my "Have I got an Avatar for you?" thread. That, and a fast turn-around on special requests! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

What's that? you're still hiding? Don't be shy, drop by the 'Avatar' thread and join the fun!

..This advertizement has been brought to you by ME! Yup, I did it, I'm still doing it, but I won't be doing it forever! Are you going to miss the boat? I hope not! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

Cheers!

Usage Problem. A praising remark; an accolade or compliment: “Children's book author Virginia Hamilton added another kudo to her prize-laden career” (Calvin Reid).

There you have it.

Hey David, wonder if captivating stories draws in Lurkers too? I guess I will find out with my next edition that will be out in a week or so. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
