I (try to) look at every photograph and read every comment.

Sometimes I comment (if I can think of anything or I see something) sometimes I don't, but photographs are appreciated (by me). I'm more interested in trucks (and their loads) than (modern) buses - though some of them catch my eye, and if I see one similar in town I try to identify it so that I can recognise it next time I see one.

I've got 'one' tucked away in the camera that was new to me - I'll need to investigate it first though.

I also try to look at all the images which are posted, but if I can't think of anything to say I won't post a comment just for the hell of it.

Same goes for me. I know I've posted a couple of piccygraphs that have received no comments. I was just thinking about it last week and wondering why. One in particular, I was quite surprised at the lack of comment.

I quite agree with what is being said by all, but take notice of the people who have responded to this thread. It is the same people who contribute all of the time, where are all the other members, they must have something to say or contribute, after all why did they join?

Looking at the members list, there are some that have not visited the site for two years, so yes why did they join???

G-CPTN 1st October 2010 22:33

It's possible that, at the time, it wasn't as active as they expected.

I have joined other sites when required to in order to see images (members only) then never go back.

Just out of interest here, how many of the members on here, current or otherwise, are also members of "Sister Forums" like SN or the Railway Forum, or even the Aviation Nostalgia forum?

as an aside when does new become old? or is it the style of our youth ?
