> What makes you feel uncomfortable about someone who's lurking, anyway? It's not like it's a private conversation or anything...
I know it isn't a private conversation in the sense that people can join at any time.
It is a hard to say why I feel a little disconcerted...
When people are chatting then it can feel like a private conversation in the sense that you know who your audience is and you are talking to them.
I'm always happy to see someone arrive :-)
I adjust my conversation accordingly.
Maybe it is because I never know whether you are reading and not chatting or whether you are not reading.
How come you like to stay logged in rather than logging in and out?
