I think over the time that its been running, if you look at it then we've probably had these people in drips & drabs but they dont tend to hang around if theres no support, only the die hards do that.
I think you're caught between someone doing a really good write up on something & then it being soul destroying that theres been 146 views & no reply ( I know, Ive been there, amongst others

) & then the other side of the coin is when the same great write up is there & it has 14 replies all saying 'great, brilliant, thanks' etc. Thats obviously better than the first one but it just makes it look busier but theres still only the same amount of decent info on there. That can look desperate to keep people IMO but its done for the right reasons, but looks crap IMO.
I dont think the problem is finding these people as by the nature of the beast they come knocking every now & again, the key is keeping them, or keeping them long enough until the next one comes along so they can talk to each other & become gay lovers etc
