    Hiya! Nothing wrong with lurking. You'll find a lot of us over here just like spreading news. Though I do hope you end up joining the conversation!

      Thanks, picklefingers! The content here is great from what I've seen. I'm very happy about that and I plan to contribute. I like reading news, and I also enjoy a good conversation about it, so it's a relief to have a more civil community here. Things can get so ugly online, it's sad. Anyway, I look forward to getting to know this site better and I hope to see you around. :)

        Yup. It is definitely a nice relief from reddit where you have entire networks of subs (e.g. /r/subredditdrama) just to keep up with the constant drama.

          LOL, my feeling exactly. I wanted so much to like Reddit, and I really tried, but gosh! I'm not sure what's going on there. I think it's just not managed properly, or maybe it's just not for me? IDK. The more I explored the less I liked it. It's kind of a cesspool TBH. I'm trying not to rant about it. ;)

          Love the fingers, BTW. Reminds me of Salad Fingers.

            I agree. Some of the sub reddits are ok,but most of the site caters to the lowest common denominator. This place is indeed much nicer and it's better looking as well.

              and the 'rpg' concept is neat too.

              Yeah, I like it. They had me at "stay a while and listen" on the prologue page. I though, "I don't have time! Just identify my items!" ;)

              The Snapzu interface is fantastic. The site is super slick and visually pleasing. If they can grow their user base and still find a way to manage content so it doesn't get ugly, that would be great. :D

              Good to meet you, BTW.
