I never understood why people lurked so long.
As a long-time lurker, I mainly visit HN to get exposed to new ideas that I know little about. This is why I don't (and shouldn't) comment very often.
- opendomain 15y agoI also was a long time lurker. I participated in a few comments - and then saw my karma drop for no reason I could discern. Perhaps a much more clear rules and a response when something is down voted.
- akg 15y agoI was a long-time lurker as well for the same reason. I do find however, that participating in the community opens up new discussions and I can further my learning by connecting with other people. It's always a learning experience to have discussions with people who are more knowledgeable about a topic or have differing opinions than your own.
