hmm, i gotta wonder

Sometimes people aren't in the mood (e.g. I didn't vote) for poetry. Not a reflection on your endeavor.
oh, misinterpretation.
i'm just surprised there's so many lurkers on the forum is all

It may be how things are count too, per view and not individual
I posted a question in an "Open Carry" forum asking, "Do you carry a knife when you carry a gun". It has 143 views, 15 votes and 9 responds. So the ratio here seems to be about par.
there are always at least three hundred 'guests' logged into WrongPlanet at any one time, not counting the members that have a log in. When I first started to mod I was blown away at that!
i guess that's alot for an AS forum. i'm just used to regular NT ones i guess where the number of members online was usually in the thousands. and where topics got so many replies so fast it was actually somewhat hard to keep up haha.
the thought of the majority just lurking there just seems odd. i at least try to respond to a number of topics in each forum i post in. but maybe it's because i'm more towards the high-functioning end. idk
it's just that being the one place where we might be able to be more ourselves and not so inhibited in speaking our mind and it's still a lurker-happy ghost town. it's frustrating even if somewhat still understandable. old habits die hard. i guess i can't begrudge them that
hmmm....
