There's nothing wrong with that. IMO that's the RIGHT way to use a forum -- lurk to determine the appropriate practices, and then jump into the conversation. In MY opinion (and I know this differs from most users here -- and even most of the staff) introduction posts/threads are just unnecessary vanity.
