Nope, but congratulation for the 10,000 member PU forum.
Btw most of the time there is a gift involved if your member 10,000 right? ... k7 maybe?

The frustrating is that out of the 10000, how many are regularly active?

Strange really because when you join a forum you probably do have the intention contribute, if not what is the benefit? The frustrating is that out of the 10000, how many are regularly active?
Still 10,000 members with I would hope a fairly high percentage being Pentax owners, not too bad

Even with 10,000 members you would be lucky too have %3 that have contributed more than 1 post,
I looked at the member list a while ago, (On the old forum before the upgrade) and there were very few active members. I remember seeing 1 member, I think he was from Mongolia, who registered over 100 times, changing his user name slighly each time and I don't think he ever contributed 1 post very strange

To be fair, I'm technically a member of at least 10 forums (fora?) but I'm only a regular contributer on 2, the others I have between 1 and 10 posts to my name.
As someone said above, I joined every one with the intention to contribute, just only a couple actually have the combination of information, atmosphere and people to make me keep coming back.

This is the only forum I'm an active member on.
I no longer visit the climbing one I used to use as injury and bad weather have slowed down any outdoor stuff...
...except photography.

It would be hard on the judge if all 10,000 members decided to enter the weekly or fortnightly competition at the same time.

Forums. The derivation of the word may not be derived from Latin, not every -um word is!

My dictionary gives both fora and forums as acceptable plurals!

I can confirm that Forum is indeed a Latin word, John, but as TonyM's dictionary says both forms of the plural are acceptable in English.

My Classically trained teacher husband went positively spare if I ever said Forums - he insisted it was Fora
