to be honest, i cant understand why you are complaining, you realize that by posting they are creating an exponential effect of adding kilobytes to each page for people to read.
as it is, each time I come here, and click "new posts since last visit" I get hit with a minimum of 9 pages, and I visit daily.
Thats pretty crazy to me.
but you have to realize, this is a public website, people have free will.
I understand your frustration, I used to run a forum on my site which was a repoistory for pictures that I took at parties, all these party kids would come look, download, link to my site and use my photos on other message boards, and not even post or say thanks to me for my work of maintaining and raising that site.
I've since sold that website to someone else because they thought they could do it without bitching, like I did.
what did they do? shut down the site after 2 months of trying to get some recognition for my work.
pretty sad, but I walked out of the deal with 50$ *shrug*
point is, you need to stop looking at the site as your playground now, its up, its pretty much self contained at this point, the people who DO post are the ones adding to your content, and the ones who provide the repeat traffic.
if anything I would like to see a webmaster/admin focus more on complimenting the people who DO contribute, and DO participate, rather than bash on the people who do not.
positivity is everything man
