I was just browsing the member list and was surprised to see that probably 90% of the members only made less than 10 posts. A vast majority list 0, 1 or 2 posts.

I'm wondering if its the same 40 or 50 members who use these forums on a regular basis?

Take a look. What do you think?

I think your right Mark42, its probably just a hand full of members who make all the posts.

Ya know, I'm beginning to believe it only one stinking member who keeps posting.

What do you think? :D :D :D

All seriousness aside...in my observations, I think the vast majority of members come in for one-time technical help with a problem & it is solved in relatively few posts. The big-number posters are those with the most technical help to offer, or the most strongly opinionated (down here in the cellar anyways) and those are comparatively few.

Re: How many members are regular posters?

Sometimes I wonder if there are about ten members with multiple handles? When you check out some of the Syntax of a few of the posters, you will be surprised at the similarity. That is something that if you try changing it is very hard to keep at it. In other words you will eventually slip up, and some of us will be watching.:D

I'm proudly on page 2, in order of post count.;) I probably don't help out much, and I dont think I am overly opinionated........ so I'm not sure I fit stevieray's observation. LOL

Just because you're paranoid, that doesn't mean we aren't really out to get you.

"Strongly opinionated" & "overly opinionated" are two different animals. :p
