For an example, a parent or someone is asleep in the living room and they're a real light sleeper, and you really don't want to wake them up, so you have to walk by without making too much noise. Are you the type to be sneak on by with no problems, or are you the type to start stepping on every creak in the floor and trip over stuff?

I'm apparently really good at moving around without anyone noticing. It helped me tremendously as a child when it came to getting into food I shouldn't have. And I can scare the crap out of people usually, since they rarely notice me coming. It's kinda fun, actually.

Yes I am. If one of my parents are taking a nap in the living room, I don't want to wake them up so I'll get me something to eat and then go upstairs to play my game. :D That's after they know that I'm downstairs that is. I don't want it where I'll scare them.

Nope, and I've had a bad cough for like 3 months now so I'll give myself away pretty easily.

I hear there are Ninja employment opportunities down at Cosco :P Anyways yah I am very light on my feet, but my problem was always opening a door stealthily. I more or less just let it creek as loud as it can.

The other ninjas keep hiding it from me. :( You can usually tell by the door how much force and speed you need to use in order to avoid doing that. It helps to actually know a little about the door beforehand, but then there are doors that'll do it no matter what you do. That's why you need to apply oil before attempting to open it. :P

I'm totally one of those people who will try and be as super-stealthy as Snake himself and creepski creepski along until I smash into the bookcase, recoil from that into a lamp or something, and then just crash down the stairs.

I don't 'do' stealth :cry:

If the floor isn't creeky, then yeah, I should be fine. My Dad says I keep disappearing all the time.

And I can scare people too. And I agree with you TC. It is fun.

Well, I am good at being stealthy when people are asleep. Awake, not so much.

Yeah. Sometimes I scare people by "sneaking" up on them even when it's not intentional.

Why don't you tell me yourself. Did you notice I stole your hat! I'm like a ninja of course. Ok not really, but I have got good at not waking people up. Especially when people are sleeping on the couch and I want to watch TV.

I have no idea. I guess I'm socially stealthy because no one ever notices me. :(

Pretty much, can easily avoid the squeaky spots in the parquet by standing as close to the wall as possible. In fact I have to jump from one side of the wall to another. Only the stairs, though, are the difficult part because every step squeaks

I can be stealthy...sometimes. The worst thing about my house is the floors creak very loudly, so it's hard to be stealthy.

I can because my body is really light. I can jump and land with little to no sound.

Well, I've never really had a need to be stealthy... and my experiences with creaky wooden floors has convinced me that I'm not stealthy. :P My brother is stealthy though... whenever I'm back at home, he tries to sneak up on me but half the time I realize he's there out of a hunch. The other half, he successfully manages to sneak up to me.
