I don't think I'm /that/ much different; I rarely start threads, 
for example, but will talk in replies, which is analogous to 
waiting for someone else to approach me in person then having the 
discussion before going back into the shadows once it runs its 
course.

I also lurk on forums for a pretty long time before posting, 
similarly to how I sit quietly in bigger groups until I get to 
know the people (and generally until someone on the inside takes 
me under their wing).
