Should people answer the question as to their Lurker/Poster state BEFORE or AFTER answering?

(since answering may change the answer)

Not really . . . but believe it or not, I do often refrain from posting much of what I am thinking as some may not share my sense of humor (YES, that is what I call it, humor!)   ;)

Some people don’t like my sense of humor, and always want to turn what I say into a confrontation of some sort. I think with those type of people they have a problem and not me (I know i have my share of problems however).

I like your sense of humour too but I can still remember your response to my first newbie question about one of your plug ins which was......"Glad you figured it out, I thought you were disabled".

Looking back it's funny but at the time I didn't know how to take it.  In the end I decided to be glad that you helped me out.

LOL, Well It Sounds Like Something I Would Say.

If people would lighten up sometimes the world would be a better place to live.

A lack of time and english skills keeps me from posting more, but I'm lurking whenever I can.
Erm, what is humor?

"Having a sense of humor" does not seem to be the same as "being funny"... it's like lurking and posting... :P

OK, how about that:

- How do you make a German chocolate cake?
- First, you occupy the kitchen.
