I have now been a member of the Forums almost 15 years and a moderator for the Welcome Mat Forum for approximately the last 10 years. There is something I do not quite understand about new members joining the Forums and never posting, either to acknowledge their welcome to the Forums when I approve them, to post a questions or to add their input to a post that exists.

First off I have no problem whatsoever with new members not posting, but, a collector does not have to become a Forum member to read all the posts so if that is the case why join if you are not going to post. I'm only asking this question because an old man like me has to keep his brain energized by asking questions and hopefully getting some answers so my brain can process them.

Oh well, the above question will probably never get a response so I will put another section of my brain to rest since it will not be able to analyze the reasons.
