Why do so many people view the post without posting? Are they mutes? Or just not interested. Surely their interested or they wouldn't view. "Very interesting", and what a large difference there is beteween Posters and viewers. No harm intended. Just a thought. Or maybe I'm having an Andy Rooney moment. my website...

Well, first of all: Every click counts as a view. So it's not neccessarily that many people viewing the topic (although that probably only applies for postings with many answers). But then again: I don't see a reason in answering many posts. I just answer, if I really have something to contribute. Best regards Jens |

Maybe people don't want to post inane replies to every thread, like some of the post count whores here. BTW, it's "they're interested", not "their interested". There, now you've got a reply, and I've managed to use "their", "there" and "they're" in one post and one sentence. |

In the case of the thread I created...the many views as opposed to the number of posts ( usually 100 views for every post ) comes, I think, from the fact that a lot of people come in to check something that I post on a nightly basis. Of course.....even before I started doing that nightly post, the thread had about a 100 to 1 ratio.....hmmmmmm.....

Well thats not nice, calling people who have a lot of posts that dirty word, where are your manners Angus? |

What's this about post to view ratio? This is a new concept for me. And currently its more like 10 to 1. me@rescam.org |
