Your sentiment is fair comment, but the interpretation a bit wide of the mark. True, I joined 2013 for a look, but left almost immediately. Upon buying a first CW at Christmas '15, I re-activated my log-in, first posting Feb '16, averaging 10 posts per month since, which makes me just about a third as prolific as you since getting actively involved.Caller wrote:Look, I get that everyone has the right to use the forum as they choose fit and excuse me for just highlighting the above points from your post. But you have made 20 posts per year in each of the last three years. So if you want all the things as posted above, then get involved more. It's a bit rich complaining about what some do post when you hardly post at all.
Sure, I'm hardly Barbara Cartland in the productivity stakes, but I try and add value. Perhaps if I start posting "Nice watch m8", "Happy Birthday *insert Internet stranger's name here* ", or waded into the 'three words' thread in earnest, I would have a more populous & worthy post count. But I'd also be starring in the 'Asinine' thread. That's not a dig at you, by the way - just observing that last time I checked, it wasn't a competition.
Those posters more senior than I make valued contributions and keep things moving - long may it continue, criticism and all. The issue I & others have raised is more the manner of posting, rather than volume (aside from the sheer repetitiveness at times), so I feel you're missing the point a bit.
