Is this forum dead (so far)

The thing is that in forums the population is always divided into three groups:

- lurkers
- posters
- commenters

there's a good 20:1 ratio between commenters and posters which is why you'll usually see threads from the same people over and over.

So far, we have a decent numbers of commenters, but no posters, which means the commenters have no reason to be on the site, which makes it inactive.
