Basically it's the new people on GzP. But let me ask my good friend urbandictionary.com.

Lurker - A lurker is someone that follows the forum but doesn’t post.

Lurker - Someone who is constantly on [Only registered and activated users can see links. ] looking at the same people that they don't know over and over again to see if they have new pictures, who their friends are etc. etc.

Lurker - A person who is just "there." Nobody really knows why, other than they show up and don't say a word. Possible reasons for this could be:
-They don't know what to say
-They are pretending to have friends
-They are trying to scare you
-They are there just to be seen with you, as if they have some kind of relationship with you.

Lurker - a person who reads the posts on a forum, message board, etc, but does not post
