If you think about it, the thread is a celebration of lurkers. There are generally ten flys-on-the-wall for every member signed in.

All Dark — The term predates .html, despite what https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/rules-of-the-internet might say.

The full catch-phrase was https://duckduckgo.com/?q=%22lurkers+support+me+in+email

The Lurkers Support Me in E-mail
(To the tune of "My Bonnie Lies Over the Ocean")

By Jo Walton
The lurkers support me in email
They all think I'm great don't you know.
You posters just don't understand me
But soon you will reap what you sow.

Lurkers, lurkers, lurkers support me, you'll see, you'll see
off in e-mail the lurkers support me, you'll see.

Oh it's true, and you know they support me.
There's thousands of lurkers out there!
They all understand my intentions
you posters are not being fair!

Lurkers, lurkers, lurkers support me, you'll see, you'll see
off in e-mail the lurkers support me, you'll see

The lurkers support me in email
"So why don't they post?" you all cry
They're scared of your hostile intentions
they're not as courageous as I.

Lurkers, lurkers, lurkers support me, you'll see, you'll see
off in e-mail the lurkers support me, you'll see
....
