Long Time Members Who Dont Post Much

[kook]

siiren is currently leading the slack *** contest with 0.03 posts per day hahahaha

A quick member search reveals people who joined in Dec 02 that have less than 25 posts, and are still active.

well i guess i qualify as a long time member that hasnt got a lot of posts up, i read the forum nearly everyday, sometimes only on for 5 mins , other times an hour or two, cant see much point in posting a lot unless i need info or can help on a query by someone, there are a lot more informed people on here that give good advice and actually know what they are talking about so i leave that to those guys to answer most questions, i find that there are a lot of guys on here that answer everything thats posted with sometimes advice thats not always correct, , then there are the ones that have only been on the site for a matter of a few months but have posted in the thousands, wonder when they actually get time to brew.

Hey I joined 27 days before you and I'm 30 posts behind (a cracking .07 posts per day). Stop chewing bandwidth

 

[big d]

I think you will find most posting topics have been done to death over the years hence the long time members dont readily reply as it becomes repetitive plus i think its also good to let others have there say.

I only keep track of a couple of subjects now and only write to these if necessary, whimsical or very drunk. (I am currently trying to conserve my marathon writes/concentration for BIAB guides etc. )

Of course, I occasionally click on a thread with a good title but is it just me or do threads these days seem to quickly descend in quality? It seems that I rarely happen upon a thread these days that gives consistent sound advice. The poor buggers writing sound advice seem to be too quickly drowned out or ignored in favour of some silly and usually full-on illogical argument. To be honest, I can't even recall a promising thread I have looked at in recent times that didn't quickly depress me.

I feel very lucky that I joined at the time I did and was helped directly by so many brewers and have got to meet so many legends like big_d above.

I just hope the genuine new guys here still get the service I got.

BTW big_d, beers at my place on Saturday...

This is the reason some people dont post as much. Lurking is better. Hard to bite your tongue sometimes though. I am guilty of "biting" sometimes. Still a great site though.

Im no expert, but if i have experience with something, i will share that experience, not quote a website or text book.

 

[bL@De]

I reckon I would have to be one of the oldest regular members which seems to just lurk.

I don't post too much but certainly read what I can, have always been K&K but in the past month have moved to AG with now 3 brews under my belt.
