If this is really a concern to you and Gary please send me a PM, I will be glad to talk to any of you on this issue.
Why send a PM, I have tried to explain my concerns here in this thread. I probably have enough posts to qualify for the elitist forum, but I don't want in. I think it's wrong to divide the forum. If indeed lurkers are the problem, deal with the problem, don't treat the members as if they are lurkers and part of the problem. I hardly ever punished my kids for things the neighbors kids did. It would be simple to make this a members only forum with X number of posts a year to maintain your membership, quality posts not "good job" or "way to go" I could have 2000 posts by the end of the year if numbers were the only thing that matters, rather than constructive, helpful and pertinent posts.
There's your PM
