Why Don't Browsers Post - Innkeeper - 01-07-2014
One can visit this site almost any time of day or night and find a dozen or so browsers lurking around. Why are they reluctant to join the game, and do some posting?

I don't get that either. I wonder if signing up is an issue. Tried to make that as easy as possible without letting spammers through. If anyone wants to try to register with a new username, let me know if it's easy or not. I've tried it and I didn't see any problem.

Do you know what the general ratio of lurkers to contributors is? I would love to see some new blood writing!

I'd just love to see a warm body besides the normal 3 posting! WW

Huh?

Well, from a member, sometime poster and daily browser I've become bored with posting TNs. It's not the Board or members, the board is great and the members are like friends...it's just me. I still drink wine but I'm just bored. Hopefully a phase, take no criticism.

I'm kind of like Drew. We've been drinking our share of nice wines, like the 08 Clos Pepe Estate PN, but just not posting. I guess I'll have to belly up.
RE: Why Don't Browsers Post - Innkeeper - 01-23-2014
At the moment there are 20 browsers lurking. How many of them will post? My guess is none!
RE: Why Don't Browsers Post - Innkeeper - 02-13-2014
All day today there have been 10 to 15 lurkers. I made a post, but that's it.
RE: Why Don't Browsers Post - winoweenie - 02-14-2014
I stop by 2 boards fairly regularly and don't post because I have nothing constructive to say. 90% of the posts I read seem to be critical or somewhat sniveling (love the word) or pretensous. Now there's a whole thread about the products they like at Trader Joes and one of the posters made the inane comment "Nothing!" Boy did I have to bite me keyboard on that one. Poor old unsophisticated me has only had one thing in the meeny yars I been shopping there that I wasn't happy with. Most of my staples are purchased there. WW
RE: Why Don't Browsers Post - Kcwhippet - 02-14-2014
I get my staples from Staples.

A binding thought KC but I just can't fasten my attention span to this innocuous utterance. WW
