There will always be lurkers. Especially when they are newcomers. TFP has a policy and they uphold it. The lurkers aren't around for long...they get caught in Wile E's crosshairs!
Those who are truly dedicated to this site and who want to be part of this wonderful community will post. Those are the postings we want here. Not random crap just to keep a foot in the door...
