NGF Membership

[Lawrence]

"There are 1489 members who have never posted"
Gosh, that is most surprising.

Not really, there are always those in life who only take, yet give nothing in return, irrespective of the subject

I don't believe you should take Admin/Mods into account when looking at any such statistics as it has to be remembered that part of our remit is to look at every post regardless, unlike others who can pick and choose. Therefore by our very existence we are likely to post more than others.
Pretty much anything can be made of statistics but I feel it is safe to assume those with 1000 posts or more have been with the NGF the longest so that has to be factored in as well.
At the end of the day, does it really matter how many posts any member has? I have experienced some members who have under 10 posts to their name but the information gained from those posts has been invaluable. I won't go into quantity v quality as you will all see by implication I post a lot of 
I do, however, feel those who just 'lurk' without registering are missing out

So can't the forum be modified to only show PICTURES and or POSTS to members who are logged in ?

Yes it can.  Some boards on the forum aren't shown to guests, just as the Classifieds isn't shown to those with less than 10 posts.

Nice one Ric. We do, I must admit, take the mods and other staff for granted a lot of the time so it's good to have an excuse to say a big  to everyone who has a hand in making this such a great, friendly place to be. Well done to you all.

That's worth saying again

A big thank you to everyone who has had a hand in making this such a great, friendly place.
