  • Quiet Coffeesnobs?

    Some of us Coffeesnobs are very talkative -- running at up to 8 posts a day.

    Ive  just done a very quick survey and discovered that while we have more than 2200 members -- half have yet to  hit the keyboard in anger.  :-X    Maybe they never will, as membership dates back a year or more without one single post.

    Maybe they are waiting for the "right moment"    

    Maybe they just like to observe. Or perhaps are only in it for the green beans.

    Now wouldnt it be a great exercise to start a thread: "What is your reason for joining and not posting yet"     But methinks that would be self-defeating.  ;D

    Just an interesting observation for someone sitting out Iron Chef on a Saturday night.

        I left iron chef to come in here. Can only take so much of the rubbish fake prattling of the american accented dubbed japanese narrators.

        For anyone whos interested, there will be a programme on Cream starting in a couple minutes.

        This means I am out of here, sayonara.

          It will be interesting to see who will replace Michiba next week as the new "Japanese Iron Chef". I looove Chen, he is just so groovy and always good for a laugh  ;D

          I sort of consider myself as a "quiet coffeesnob", but I enjoy reading all posts that everyone makes and helps when I need advice.

            I love the iron chef - except for the nights when they do some pretty inhumane things.

            Hmmm....8.67posts per day...I must be slipping! :-[

              Well you are streets ahead of Robusto so dont sweat it.

              And youre also in front of me.

              I admin another forum where my average is just a smidge lower per day than here and Im up to 8500 posts there.

              Funny thing is, one of the members said years ago that he was "an infrequent poster" and now hes passed me and pulling away.

                Quantity isnt important, its the content and relevance that count 8-)

                  Im averaging 0.5 posts/day, but I log on about 5 times a day to keep up with whats going on.
                  This forum has been instrumental in prompting me to buying a grinder (when funds arrive) and to haunt the garage sales for a bread maker.
                  A hell of a lot is to be learned here simply by sitting back and taking note of what the more experienced members have to say.
                  Thanks to all.

                    Agreed Mal.
                    I gave up post count related titles long ago.
                    Almost all of my 8500 posts are quality ones, thats why Im falling behind.

                        Thank you kind sir.
                        Your own select but wisely chosen words are also most appreciated.

                            perhaps we need a pwoty award for the post whore who increases their post count with the most useless posts in a 12 mth period.
