This happens like every night.
There are always like 9 or 10 people on, but nobody posting.

I never understand why this is happening, so can somebody clear this up?

Seluecos · « **Reply #1 on:** October 29, 2009, 01:02:55 am »

Nope >:3

DancingTofu · « **Reply #2 on:** October 29, 2009, 01:05:55 am »

Nope, sorry.

I think they're alien spies.

Seluecos · « **Reply #3 on:** October 29, 2009, 01:09:45 am »

It's the satellites
See, we are posting, but the lag due to the fact the K-Con Satellites being on the other side of the planet (right around 9:12-10:03 I think) create insane lag, so it only seems like no one is posting, but in all actuality we are. Hope this helps JT (At least if I remember right that's you're name XD)

If we could afford a satellite, we wouldn't spend it on a satellite.

would probably spend it on
1. breaking the hilton contract
2. acquiring a new place to do the convention
3. getting tofu a captain hook costume

DancingTofu · « **Reply #7 on:** October 29, 2009, 01:31:11 am »

I think you have your priorities mixed up there.

Captain Hook costume is #1 priority for the Kumoricon board of directors.

I only post on matters that I have a clear grasp of what I'm talking and am sure of the facts surrounding the said matter. I also don't post on things I don't care about unless I have a strong opinion regarding the the topic at hand.

I try to post when there's a strong enough arguement to be made that makes me look like the evil guy.

TomtheFanboy · « **Reply #13 on:** October 29, 2009, 04:15:45 am »

Yeah if you ever see +1 hidden it is not cthulhu's date, it is kylite. Kylite learned his super lurker abilities at the same place he got his forum name. He likes to watch.
*snicker*

Anyway though, the real answer to your questions is CHAT. A lot of these people are IMing each other in different programs rather than chatting on the board itself.

xcthulhux · « **Reply #14 on:** October 29, 2009, 11:22:44 am »

i post because i love pretty much all of the people here, and i like to plan meetups with them, and hear what they have to say etc.

Add guests from Japan to that... or trips to Japan in the goody bags.

If we could afford a sattelite we would not break the Hilton contract because that would be rude and be bad business conduct that would sour the convention's reputation with ALL hotels.

We would bribe the Hilton CORPORATION to build a non-franchise hotel in Portland for us and bribe the city planners to restart the convention center hotel project so that Portland can create a discount program for large conventions like us.

Or maybe just pay for the remodelling at the Vancouver hilton so it can hold an additional 1000 attendees.

Supposedly they own the big vacant lot behind the hotel and are going to expand once they can afford it. This is 2 year old gossiop but it'd still be awesome.

i pretty much lurk until something interesting happens, or i feel like saying something.
i post and lurk a pretty equal amount though.

i am just now realizing how much i am really on here.

Not that little, it's just a term of endearment.
Now I've got to upload all the videos I made so that I can deleted them from the hard drive.

After the turn of the hour I'm going to restart to have a clear mind.

Well... not to jump back to a dead thought but...

http://www.hq.nasa.gov/office/legaff/9-23gold.html

specifically:

Quote from: NASA

They are expensive, with launch costs ranging from $50 million to $400 million.

With even the lower end of that budget spectrum, we could easily buy some parcel of
land and fund some sort of construction for our own convention space; with the higher
end we could do that and have every famous manga author in this country and japan,
and a translator for any who need it plus....

TRACK LIGHTS EVERYWHERE!

Ah to dream....

Also, I post all the time... and I am always on the forums.... especially at late night times.
The reason why I might be on, but it seems like I'm not posting is that sometimes it takes
me about 40 minutes to write one of my novels... because I have to scrounge the internet
to make sure my concent is true and real!

But this post only took me 6 minutes! woot! Go nasa's easy to navigate files!

TurboSaiyanJason · « **Reply #38 on:** October 29, 2009, 10:25:57 pm »

As far as the lurkers go, my guess is most just do a mass of PM exchanging with each other, while only half engage in posting where everyone can see. I have only a small few to chit-chat with. Also happens at most meetups. Got no way to break through it so I roll with it.
