Members Lucky Posted March 20, 2019 Members Posted March 20, 2019 Not that anyone is counting, but over the last 24 hours, only 30 posts have gone up. Why say "only?" Well, it's clearly been slow for new content, except for the Latin Forum. But in the last 24 hours, those 30 posts came from 91 members who signed on in the last 24 hours. So, after log-in, only one of three members even others to say something! Just saying. I mean, who cares, really... Quote
Members Latbear4blk Posted March 20, 2019 Members Posted March 20, 2019 I think that is a quite good ratio, beyond the low traffic. It is well known that most members are observers, and only a minority actively participates. I do not have actual data to back my impression and I am not going to invest one second of my time on finding it. MsGuy 1 Quote
Members Avalon1849 Posted March 20, 2019 Members Posted March 20, 2019 I got evicted from another group for posting too much. I want to play it safe here. Else I'd be posting dozens of new topics. Quote

I made the assumption for the purpose of the thread that each of the 30 posts was by a different individual, but of course some folks made multiple posts. Ergo, of the 91 online, far less than a third posted. Quote

Members NolaAndBeyond Posted March 24, 2019 Members Posted March 24, 2019 I've been an occasional lurker on this site for years, but I've recently discovered that I can't view certain forums because I'm under 10 posts. This policy seems destined to encourage posts that don't really contribute much to the conversation, but hey, they aren't my rules, I just follow them. MsGuy 1 Quote
