So there's something I like to call "Forum Stalking." It's happened to me on a few occasions. You basically start reading all the threads on the forum. You start getting down to one thread left. Its posted by whoever. You finish reading, and then there's one more thread with an unread post by the same person. You read that one. Go back out, and notice there's yet another unread post in a different thread by another person.

You basically end up stalking this person's posts as they bounce from thread to thread and you continue your quest to have every thread read on the Glade before you close out your browser.

Anybody else experienced this phenomenon?

I do this to..I think it happens when someone posts a bunch of times in a burst, maybe because they are on a break or something and trying to get it all in.

I only think of it as stalking if I post after them every single time ;)

I have the thought, "I hope so-and-so doesn't think I have it out for them" when I do it.

I never paid that much attention to such things.

If I'm not mistaken, that's exactly how Taamar and I ended up together.

Everything I try to type here just seems creepy.
