    Could you please tell us all how long you lurked before you decided to join us?

    And if I missed anyone, I'm sorry. WELCOME.

    I lurked for 1/2 hour then joined. I've been here since May 15. Venice told me about the board (and Tishies) in Yahoo! chat.

    Now I'm a Jedi and I can put my underwear on with no hands.

    I found this site via Freeminds, lurked for a day, and began posting the next.

    Lurked so long I can't really put a timeline to it! Finally decided that this board was pretty safe and wanted to join in. I need to tell you all that it IS SO TRUE: there are those affected by what you say and your opinions and it makes people THINK!!!! (Even those of us who cannot, for one reason or another, commit to anything at this point in time!) I really believe that there are more JW's out there who are questioning big-time than we'll every really know about.

    Do I get to be counted as new every time I pitch a fit, declare my renunciation and then return humbled once more?

    I lurked for over a year.

    I concur with JBean's comments!

    Hi all :)

    I found this site a couple of months ago after doing a search for JW's on Lycos.

    I registered last month (i think!) but only made my first post yesterday in the personal experiences forum.

    I performed visual reconnaissance of this site and many others for approximately two years before joining.
