Board Lurkers ("guests")

[smokefish]

I've been a "lurker" for a few years now. When I signed up thought it would be good and it is, but I was turned off by all the b***ng about spot burning and "temporary guest workers" fishing in peoples spot. So i've never posted.This is my first and I would thank you all for the tips and advice that I gotten from "lurking".

The guests are probably S-B members in stealth mode

ah, flushed you out!!

Welcome! but I think all the tips and advice (and spots?) should at least be worth the "expense" of registering. Allowing lurkers to lurk forever seems to make this appear "cheap", it is really much better then that. I am not saying there should be a fee but to see 2 or 3X as many lurkers on then members seems wrong too. In time I think members might post less because it is all lurkers on board and those tips and advice will not be there.
