You can view without registering

However you need to register to be able to post a comment or start your own thread.

So why so many people registered but so few posts?

It can be quite lonely in the forums at times, and we might only bite your head off if your a Jelly Baby

"So why so many people registered but so few posts?"

Maybe they're just not interested in the global commodity price of tinned tomatoes.

I recall the days when there were virtual competitions on the increasing membership registrations, but alas those days have long gone, and possibly the friendliness of the forum?.

Regarding views does seem to raise alarm, considering that only a very few, usually the same handful who actually reply or participate to another members time of need. Its seems to be getting a one way ticket affair nowadays. Take those handful of 'helper' from the Tech Helproom, and there would be no Helproom, and the other least used Tech sections likewise would probably follow a similar fate.

Asking a lurker to respond in a post like this, is possible a good thing, if anyone feels its worthwhile to provide a reason in such a formal manner and without contradiction or ill feeling. Nothing like a public or membership survey, to liven things up, so to say?.

On a personal note, I tend to stick with the same sections ,and try to contribute when possible or being allowed to do. But my time now is becoming more of a lurker myself (and perhaps having a laugh along the way), because trying to provide contribution is becoming far more difficult and perhaps impossible?.

Reference Chronos the 2nd post at 10.28AM. Looking at the other sections in the forum doesn't quite paint a very good picture. Business Tech Helproom 7 days/14 days/ 1 month last responses. Web Design 3 days. Beta/Beginners 17 and 16 hours. Some of those with no responses from the originator's?.
