I figure a lurker is someone who don't posts often. Some people regularly post every day. some people post once a week. a lurker is the latter half, and of course that time frame can extend further.
Basically, if one's post count per day is pretty low, they're a lurker. I don't actually know what could be considered "low" though. Also,

According to my statistics I make 1.19 posts per day.

That would mean I make at least one post every day, statistically that is. Because in truth I sometimes don't post one week and then post a decent amount all in one day.
Is that lurking, or just not posting for various reasons for an unspecified amount of time.

I post less than a third a day.

I always thought a lurker was a guy who was just there, doing nothing. At least I post and some people do kind of recognize me so, there's that too.

Well at least he posted stuff before. Me? I haven't consistently posted in... years? I dunno.

Also, yes, this thread called out to me almost specifically. Don't even know why I don't post anymore...
