Maybe it's not a lurker problem but a contributor problem - 90% of posts from 5% users and 10% of posts from 50% users (the rest are bots).

I'm thinking some people are just posting too much. Stop posting dammit! :angry:

What is there to say that hasn't already been said? (Besides that most people are "lurkers".)

With so little new stuff happening it's hard to find anything different to post.
