Simply because I just got curious and therefore figured out how to "go there," I just went through - name by name, page by page - every registered member here at Lit.
Whew!!!! Double Whew!!!!
I didn't keep track, too much work of course - (maybe we can politely ask Laurel to crunch the numbers for us sometime, but I only suggest this in thinking that, via her IT magic, she can obtain these numbers in some easy fashion - but what the fuck do I know?) - but it appears to me, at a casual glance…………
That registered Lit members with postings in triple-digits runs well under 10%. Probably well, well under. Lit members with double-digit postings appear to run somewhere in under 20% and single-digits about the same. That means 50% of registered members have not posted a thing.
They've just registered. Hmmmmm?
Noting that I took a look at "when" they had registered. To be sure many of the low posters have only recently registered. They may have not had the time to post anything yet.
But, but, but - I don't think so. Not most of them.
Some clearly register to promote a vectored agenda - they have Websites. And man I tell ya - curiosity will grab you and butt fuck you every time. I was enticed by "nudeasian" (?I think that was it?) wherein her profile jumped at me - sexy 18 yr. old Japanese/American student - blah, blah, blah (if you can believe that, which I did) - and she's got a Website - I click and get a damn string of cookies out the wazzoo. You!!!!!!!!!
Anyway - ya got those types - but only a few.
But most of these dormant appearing registries seem to be from what I might refer to as, "normal, horney, erotic junkies," guys for the most part (hey I'm one and most of you all are) you can tell by there nicks (Pistonman, LickR2x's, and Red - he likes trains) who stumble in here (as I did) and start fumbling around - and find out, hey(!) - "they can register here."
And who knows? If they do - maybe they'll, "get some action," one way or the other. Maybe some beautiful author'ess will respond to one of their thank-you e-mails! Right? Have, what'd you'all call it - cyber? A little pull the pud & rubbin' the nubbin'. And maybe it'll be so good they'll meet, yeah - and she'll take him away from his flesh folded house frau - to the switch-yard to watch trains and make love. Choo-choo…. I think I can, I think I can….
So they register here and simply sit there like wall flower's and wait - and wait - and wait. Nothing happens of course so - they go away, forever (forlorn and staring at trains) - but their registry - simply sits there dormant. Taking up space.
Taking up space.
{By the way: This is what most (lonely, normal, humble) guys do in bars, or at a party - and in life. They go, they sit, they look, they dream, they get sleepy and then they go home. Nobody hit on them in the bar tonight - oh well maybe next Saturday night. But until then it's all spaghetti, Monday night football, the Simpson's and Next Generation.}
Taking up space.
Maybe there's policy - I wouldn't know haven't been here long enough. Like, after a year of dormancy these things get deleted. Maybe not. Maybe there's an auto, cyber vacuum cleaner that sucks up these long gone Sad Sacks and sends them to cyber lint heaven.
And please don't get me wrong here - this little trivial realization doesn't bother me in the least - why would it? It is rather trivial. It's just something I noticed in my first excursion there.
Maybe I just want your all's opinion on it. What do you think of all the seemingly dormant registries on the board?
