Anyone else have a problem with Lurking too much and not actually posting?

Lol, this "survey" might be a little biased because the other lurkers will probably just read the responses and the regular posters will just say no. Oh well, I'll try anyways...
So, does anyone else find themselves simply reading everything and hardly ever posting? I like to read a lot but it doesn't exactly help the earnings situation if you know what I mean.

In the beginning this is exactly what I did and I barely made the 10.00 pay out. So the next month I got a game plan together. I focused on finding friends to add to my circle, so I woul dhave some discussions to respond too. Then I set a limit of how many responses I wanted to do each day. It took me weeks to figure this out. once my limit was set, which was only about 20 per day. Then I would read the rest of the day. now I strive to complete 30-50 post a day and try to have at least 4 new discussions per week, while still trying to get 1000 friends. It is all about finding your goal and reaching it.

I will sometimes have a problem finding a discussion that moves me enough to reply. In those cases, I do end up paging through a few discussions without saying anything. Usually I'll only go through 3 or 4 at most without posting though.

When I first started I did. The other forums I post at, I mostly lurk and read. I have to consciously remember to post here. I was surprised when I visited one of my other boards, to notice that I was adding comments onto everyone's posts!
