Yeah, it's true. If you go through the members list in order of posts from 0 and up, there's not even one post until page 98.

namdoogwerdna · 04-04-2008, 01:31 PM

yeah, lurkers suck

Kerplunk105 · 04-04-2008, 01:34 PM

I think if they go over a month with no posts, they should be deleted.

WRX MAG · 04-04-2008, 01:34 PM

LOL at the bottom of the page it says "Showing results 2911 to 2940 of 6458". I just counted down the few that still said 0.

And I agree with Liz. I know this has been talked about before, but I had no idea it was this bad.

From my post on 2/28 in the thread about reaching 7,000 members:

Quote:

There are 2,751 usernames with 0 posts, another 966 with less than 5 posts, and 482 with less than 10 posts. That's already more than half of our total users...

That also means 169 people have joined in the last 35 days that haven't posted.

drkramm · 04-04-2008, 02:04 PM

maybe they just signed up that day ! lol

oh okay that makes more sense then

omgjacki · 04-04-2008, 02:06 PM

I think it should be something like, if you don't have at least 10 posts in the first month, you accound gets deleted, or something.

teh DIRT · 04-04-2008, 02:15 PM

a dead account isnt really hurting anyone that I know of is it? I mean, we could make it so the account is deleted. But why bother?

CHAOS · 04-04-2008, 02:16 PM

plus it can be used as a marketing tool... if they are looking for sponsors they can say we have x amount of members. ya know. it works out.

omgjacki · 04-04-2008, 02:17 PM

You have a point... but when the members list says 7,000+ and only about 3,000-something actually post, it's a little rediculous.
My opinion.

And doesn't it take up bandwith space, or whatever?

teh DIRT · 04-04-2008, 02:20 PM

I dont think it does. Ill have to check on that.

it makes us look major tho.

Dave · 04-04-2008, 02:20 PM

i dunno but anything that drops my member number and makes me even more og l33t is good in my book lol

omgjacki · 04-04-2008, 02:22 PM

^LOL^ agreed. But I'm faaaaaar from OG.

**Ender81** · 04-04-2008, 02:41 PM

I know that OT posting isn't included in your post count, I wonder how many of them only made a couple posts in there lol.

Do you know if there is there any way to find out what our actual post count would be if OT posts were counted?

EvlEgl · 04-07-2008, 11:13 AM

Well back in the OG Days they use to count Off topic posts, And I still dont get why they dont now...Its still a Post on the Forum in my eyes, But this isnt the only One that does it that I'm on...Its trivial though so I dont really worry about it.

But I dont think there is a way to calculate it unless you count each and every post you made.
