SYM titles

I don't really post a lot in SYM, but I have read a lot of interesting topics in this board. I have questions regarding the titles people bestow upon themselves and others.

1) What is a Lurker?
2) What is COMM?
3) What is a SPAMMER?

How does one define these titles?

I can't really define this. Just watch me, Sleepy, Georgi, and Aegis for 'good' examples.

Not exactly, but it's good to know you'll come running when I call for you. That means we're almost ready to go on to the next step in your training.

Somebody who posts quite often in a small amount of time, over a long period of time, and who posts just to keep the conversation going. They post at least 8 times a day (yes SS, I'm saying that so I can be called a spammer, LOL, I can't help that my computer was offline for long periods of time.) , but many of them can be said to post over 50. Like Saturn said, look at examples like Aegis and Fable, they post every other post and make quite a funny conversation to be kept going

We are NOT spammer wannabes in denial! http://www.theunholytrinity.org/crac...om/cussing.gif

We COMMunicate. http://www.freakygamers.com/smilies/...Suave_anim.gif

Meaning, we do just that, COMMunicate, whenever we post... and not post for the sake of speeding up post count "faster than Chikitafastpaws..."

Okay, I looked but didn't even find "smapper" in my dictionary. http://www.buffybb.net/boards/confused.gif It must be out of date.

Hmmm..............
Interesting.

From now on, I will bestow the title of Lurker upon myself since I only post occasionally and can't follow up a lot of the threads due to insane amounts of homework. Man, how do you guys have so much time to post? It will probably take up a whole day if I posted in every single thread that interested me.
