I usually lurk unless something really interests me or I need some rules clarification. Most of the thread in this section are trollish crap. "Why does this suck?" "I won't buy 3.5." blah blah blah...
Plus I'm very direct and that comes across wrong sometimes.
Long time lurker, recent poster. As someone said earlier, its easier to read than post from work, and thats about the only time I get to spend on the boards.
