    Posting sporadically

    Hi all,

    I'm very new here, and most of you probably are very unfamiliar with me. I was posting every chance I got the first two or three days I spent here and then went very quiet, so I just thought I'd let you all know that it's not due to a lack of interest in this forum.

    I actually really like this forum and enjoy my time here. However, I have chronic fatigue syndrome and am not always up to being active here all the time. I really just wanted to let it be known that my absences are not due to lack of interest so much as due to lack of energy to navigate the internet as I'd always like.

    I really appreciate being a member of this forum and just wanted to let you all know that even when I'm not commenting or posting as I'd like I do tend to lurk as I'm able and will be posting when I feel up to it.

    Thanks!

    Apart from the staff (and a handful of very dedicated people) most of us come and go a lot. Plus it's not always that there are threads that catches our interests.

    And I can tell you that you are not by far the only Spoonie here, personally I have Chronic Arthritis so my energy fluctuate wildly too depending on whether it's flaring or not.

    Wishing you lots of spoons .

        Heresy!

        "Life" is a lie created by the Chaos Gods to draw people away from the holy interwebz!!!
        life itself was a lightsaber in his hands; even in the face of treachery and death and hopes gone cold, he burned like a candle in the darkness. Like a star shining in the black eternity of space.

        Yoda: Dark Rendezvous

        "But those men who know anything at all about the Light also know that there is a fierceness to its power, like the bare sword of the law, or the white burning of the sun." Suddenly his voice sounded to Will very strong, and very Welsh. "At the very heart, that is. Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed. But in the very long run the concern of you people is with the absolute good, ahead of all else..."

        John Rowlands, The Grey King by Susan Cooper

        "You come from the Lord Adam and the Lady Eve", said Aslan. "And that is both honour enough to erect the head of the poorest beggar, and shame enough to bow the shoulders of the greatest emperor on earth; be content."

            Don't feel bad about needing a break, or not posting all the time. I'm big about not really posting unless I actually know about a subject (like with all the debate threads going around) plus the fact that I try to follow the golden rule of "if you don't have anything nice to say, keep your mouth shut" and tend to stay silent rather than create drama.

            It's all good hun

              I follow this rule too. Sometimes I just read the latest posts in order to have a common idea on what's going on. If I have zero knowledge about something, or when I know it's none of my business, I don't get in there and keep my mouth shut.

                It's cool. I've been here for ages and I don't have many posts, myself. It's totally cool to put life first and take breaks.

                    I think almost everyone posts sporadically. Unless you're like me, and are addicted to this forum... >.>

                      I am in no place to say anything since I sneaked into the party without an invitation and didn't chip in on the last beer run; however, the phrase you chose to share is awesome. Still smiling. As for the chronic fatigue, listen to what your body tells you and follow your instincts. Hope you feel better soon.
