Re: Watching but not posting

Don't worry about it Floydy.
I admit sometimes I observe but say nowt.

It's a bit like a group of people having a conversation (or argument), you can listen to what's going on, but you don't have to barge in and add your two penny'th every time do you?

Sometimes you can learn a lot about people by listening or reading what they think and their views on things, without having to keep butting in.

I sometimes post if I have something to say that matters to me, but some can post even if they don't know what they're talking about, or just to goad others even.

That's what I think anyway.

Re: Watching but not posting

Very often I read but don't think I've got anything to contribute.

Other times I'm just not very interested in what I've read.

Re: Watching but not posting

I look at threads, just glance sometimes, to catch up on what's going on, but haven't got the time or anything worth adding to the conversation. It doesn't mean I'm not interested in the thread or what other's have to say.

I was visiting your thread Floydy, now and then, and enjoying it but, I'm not very knowledgeable about bands and couldn't keep saying "I like that" all the time, it sounds daft. So I just listened to some of the music, sorry

Perhaps we do need a "like button".

Re: Watching but not posting

I look at the list of new posts and you can tell by the tenor of the titles which are UJ's usual rants so don't post there. Same with the preponderous and high number of threads about Israel and the Jewish situation which the same points are repeated ad nauseam.


Take a quick look at the headings then usually go to Mr. Magoo's Punch thread and the fun section for a bit of light relief, then through the topics on general chat.
