    Question Lurking

    If I ask a question will this go away from the top of every page?

    "Hello kylenano it appears that you have not posted on our forums in several weeks, why not take a few moments to ask a question, help provide a solution or just engage in a conversation with another member in any one of our forums?"

    Most of the time, for reasons I won't bore anyone with, I prefer just to read this forum. But I'm finding it disconcerting being confronted with that message constantly. I assume it's new - at least I only just noticed it.

    Of course those who post regularly won't have a clue what I'm talking about!

    And if everyone who has registered here posted regularly, wouldn't the board be overwhelmed?

    Sorry, I'm just testing out a new gadget in the forum that's designed to get people more involved. I'll figure out a way to stop it from being such a nag.

    I just saw it tonight, to be honest - I do not mind it at all - kinda nice, and even though it is programmed, it is kind of encouraging

    I lurk, therefore I am?
    I'm just posting to see if posting makes the message go away.
    By the way, not posting much doesn't mean I don't like the board.

    Hi mickal.
    It's still going. I've been lurking about over at FWIS also. So many boards so little time.
    It's good to see you.
