People join every week, and they all start as strangers with zero posts. Some of them join in the discussions with respectful and well thought out posts, showing intelligence and a sense of humour. Some of them immediately start working their way through the list of things that the forum rules say you can't do here.
The latter group isn't actually encouraged to post here, but the former totally is, and you see that in the way that they fit in and soon become regulars.
And no one's making any money with this site. How would they? The pop-ups? The subscription fees? The merchandise catalogue?
