    Is there any way to see how many members there are here that have not made a post?


    Edit:

    Ok so now that that random occurrence has been taken care of!

    I counted they being 7962 members with a "zero" post count. That is just over 46% of all of tacomaworlds 17,000 + members.

    My question is Why? Do you think they joined so they could access pictures? What other explanations are out there?

    How sad. They leach information and dont bother to share their own.


    It appears there is about 7900 or so without a single post!:eek:

    Please correct me if I am wrong.

    Yeah... by my count we have 7,962 members who have never posted.

    There's another 1,982 w/ just one post.

    Ego boosting: I'm about #96 based on post count, though I'm FAR behind several of the top dogs. Chris4x4 and Tacomaman have more than 16,000 posts on me!

    I always worry about buying anything from someone who has 0 or very few post counts. You don't know if they joined to rip us off or not.

    I agree I don'r hold anything against 0 post counters normally. If they come on here and their first few posts are trying to sell stuff, especially if they are overcharging, then I do begin to judge them. Most of the stuff in the BST sub-forum is reasonable priced because members are trying to help members out. New guys may not have the same feeling of community and are just trying to make some money.

    However if they are just lurking for information, I don't have any problems with that whatsoever. It might be a little intimidating to come on and offer information when there are so many other knowledgable people on board. Also there are so many questions/answers posted that their input may have already been covered...multiple times

    Thanks for the input! I knew there would be a lot of 0 post counters, but I never imagined they would make up 46% of the members.

    I mean after all, this forum is designed for the dissemination of information so I don't see any problems with people using it just for that.

    husker- can you answer a question for me? What caused you to actually take the step and join rather than browsing as a guest?
