I think it's a combination of factors. Zen has three or four at least. I have a test account I made eons ago. Nathan, Cab, and Talon have all made multiple acoounts, though some of those have been deleted.

But as subzero said, there are people who read without posting, lurkers as they say. My brother lurked here for awhile, so I kow they're out there. And then there are people who made accounts and then disappeared (Like Lord Aiden).

lurking is a net profession. i don't think they should be called lurkers since that word has a negative connotation. i bet girls dont like lurkers.

i think mos tof them are 9-2 yos taking the opportunity to learn from the rest of us sinc ein 10 yrs time they will rule the web to an extent.

Sorry, you're wrong on both counts:
 - Lurking has no negative connotation. Most of the smart folks lurk.
 - "Girls" lurk, too. What is up with these generalizations you keep making?

its odd- people generalize things a lot. like how a lot of people refer to God as a "he". but anywho there are very few things that women cant do that men can and vica versa(example is men produce sperm, or women get pregnant, those are things unique to one gender.)

EDIT: sorry that was prob a bad example(but we're doing reproduction in science class and we just went over meiosis two days ago.)
