Lurkers by definition love to 'watch', so all you have to do to catch a Lurker is give them lots and lots of eye-candy. Dangle it in front of them and they won't be able to resist comming out of the woodwork!
That's the secret behind my "Have I got an Avatar for you?" thread. That, and a fast turn-around on special requests! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif
What's that? you're still hiding? Don't be shy, drop by the 'Avatar' thread and join the fun!
..This advertizement has been brought to you by ME! Yup, I did it, I'm still doing it, but I won't be doing it forever! Are you going to miss the boat? I hope not! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif
Cheers!

There you have it.
Hey David, wonder if captivating stories draws in Lurkers too? I guess I will find out with my next edition that will be out in a week or so. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

No, I think he's confusing it with the horror flick "The Fear of Kodos and the Invisible Mod of Death"--or at least that's my guess. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/tongue.gif
