Waving at all the lurkers! :)

Earlier today, I was just looking at the list of people currently logged in to iMore. There are currently 2277 users online, 142 members and 2135 guests. Many of the names below are ones that I'm not familiar with. So, I thought I'd wave hello. And if you feel comfortable, feel free to post a comment below. Hopefully, we can generate some great conversations!

You definitely are active! There's nothing wrong with not participating, some people aren't comfortable doing so, and there are many other reasons why people don't. I was thinking it would be awesome if we could encourage them to join in a conversation, to make them more comfortable.

Great thread and I am always out there trying to promote the mobile nations family.

I encourage folks to participate in the forums, I have made a lot of friends over the years posting on iMore and Crackberry.

Great forum community here and super welcoming! Jump right on in and say hi. You'll be promptly greeted by several members. Don't worry about your post count or others as most are very friendly around here. Hello to all of you from this sophomore forum member!!

Hello to all the lurkers! I used to lurk around for some time before jumping in. You do you and we’ll keep being us. We’re here if you want to jump in to the conversations or ask any questions.
