i had a wee look at the  members lists and it seems to have about 7-8 new sign ups each day   yet most of them dont post

any ideas why loads of guys sign up and have a post count of zero?

Lots of people just browse until they are ready to post. Made my first post on a forum a couple of days back. I've been a member since 2007.

Sometimes I wish more people would browse a bit before they posted. Then we wouldn't get endless threads going on about 'text speak'...  ::)

Agreed. But once you get going it's amazing how much advice and help is available on here. I've helped and been helped - it certainly is  good stuff all round!
