Why? Most groups include some who ask questions and others who try to answer those questions. Both of those 2 groups we could call ¡°contributors¡±; the rest might do neither but they still like to learn from what the others post. What is wrong with that?

I consider on balance that it is my business to know who is just watching our group as opposed to being positively involved. We are not restricted in terms of numbers of members, because we are a specialist group with a specialist interest. We have only 160 members.
Of those numbers maybe 15-20 hold it all together at most. The efforts of those to keep it going is therefore considerable. We see on average 100 posts per month. If I knew who the watchers were, as opposed to the contributors - I'd ask them to leave, its as simple as that. This being on the basis of it being wholly fair on those that contribute - who wants to talk to no-one - barry.
