Good Morning Everyone. Bill, Where did you find that stat? Good question? We had what 5+ pages 250-300+ members before you & I cleaned house & where were all those people? If you look what has always been the most active members come from outside the Metro Phoenix area. When we revived this Chapter Garbz & Mark were the only members from the Phoenix metro area. We have had times that the Phoenix Metro area brought us several active members. How many of those live in the Metro Area? I guess those of us that live in the sticks have nothing else to do.

Thanks Bill.
After a brief look I would bet 45-50% have zero posts & another big % have fewer than 5 posts. So my question are where are they anywhere on this forum?
Ouch Kris, Glad she is OK.

As a new guy to the forum, it can take a little bit to find some friends and have things to say. Just knowing there is a place to come and ask questions when you have them is valuable. I don't have many posts, but I have been here almost daily. It seems trite to just post an "I was here", sorta like a drive-by post. I wonder if you could see the post:login ratio what that would look like.

Howdy az gang. Going to pick up another set of tail lights for the 89 again. LOL
That will be 3 sets of tail lights on that truck and 3 sets of reverse lights.
We have 2 round ones, 2 rectangle ones, and yesterday I found some tail lights off a 70s-87 stepside ford which is what we originally wanted. Those are the tail lights.
The reverse lights are 2 on the headache rack, 1 chevy turn light turned into a reverse light and now the tail lights I am picking up has reverse lights in them. I think this will be about it for lights until we get 3 small middle ones and I talk my dad into putting some halogen lights on the headache rack. That flatbed ford I think has quite a few lights. LOL

Rick, the IL chapter leader, and I have talked about this. He has told me many times that people sign up to ask 1 question and post for a day then never come back... and I see the same stats as you guys are seeing and theres really no other answer than Rick's theory

I agree Clint.
But my thing is why request membership to a chapter if your not going to be a part of it. I guess I'm just too old school. That is why I'm not just accepting all requests. It just a waste of my time as I see it & it does nothing to develop the chapter.
Maybe I'm the only one that sees it that way. But like I said in my mind years ago you had to post & be apart of, to join the Nevada Chapter. I maybe wrong but somewhere here I got that idea. I don't have any original ideas almost everything is something I have heard, seen, read, etc. I know I'm not alone there because I have others say that also. Those with original ideas are people like Bill Gates & if he was honest how many of his ideas were his?
