Lurking vs. Keeping Quiet

This forum is for discussion related to the game.

Is there a difference?

No... there's no excuse not to post to a game each time you're on mafiascum.

Maybe... not entirely sure. Sometimes I stay quiet, sometimes I'm a chatterbox.

Yes... sometimes it's better to keep quiet than post just for the sake of posting.

How about if you're an important town role and fear that saying something stupid when you have nothing to say will lead to your subsequent bandwagoning and role revelation, and death? I hate it when people, especially town, say the most retarded things and then end up getting lynched for attracting attention.

Sometimes, it IS just better to keep quiet.

The difference between lurking and keeping quiet, is pretty simple, actually. Ex. mailing lists. I get about six new topics a day from one of my lists. Sometimes I'll respond, sometimes I won't. I'll respond when I have something to say, so I'm not a lurker. If I have things to say, but don't respond, then I am. If I never have anything to say, I should probably quit playing Mafia.
