Out of curiosity: What is the difference
between active and passive lurking?
In my mind,

active lurking is reading the post and enjoying the discussion but
consciously (for whatever motive) not responding.

Delurking to prove your point. I'm the definition of the active lurker. I'm member No.1 of silklist, and have posted around 10 messages in the past 5 years. But have read every single message for the past 20 years. :)


While not with the same degree of certainity that Bharath has, passive lurking is something that I've been doing for a while too.

Something about that thread prompted delurking. I wonder why....

Cheerio,
