That's the same question I've been asking!!! If you look at the page views, you can see we've got people reading the board, but for some reason I can't figure out, we've got only a few posting (either starter threads or replies).
Here are some thread counts from the "outline view" for example: Where is everybody? Started By yoopertroll - Oct-21 4:38 pm (2 Messages - 44 views) --- only one person so far replied before me. Hi, ladies! Started By cl-purple31 - Aug-31 2:50 pm (12 Messages - 616 views) --- the sad thing about this one is that there were only 4 people who made the replies.... 616 views??? Please Pray for Molly Started By yoopertroll - Sep-9 8:27 am (2 Messages - 108 views) --- the two messages were the original one and one reply.

There are a lot of people checking the board out but not many who are actually posting. I wish more would post, but I can't seem to figure out how to get them to do that. Every time I post invites on the newer playgroup boards and we get someone here, they get practically no feedback and either don't bother coming back because of it or go into lurker mode themselves.
I totally understand that this is a transient board ---- meaning that it's only needed by a person for a select period of time before their child's birthmark is no longer an issue --- but when nobody's posting at all, it's not helping anyone.
