You cant allow a forum to become stagnant, no more than you can allow it to become a forum of animosity. There has to be a balance to keep people interested in coming. There are many passive people here that keep coming no matter whats going on. Its been my experience through some of the Pm's Ive received that while they are passive and gentle in their own posts, they do enjoy a bit of shi* on the forum, it livens things up.
Personally I may be considered a stirrer and that sits ok with me. I believe people to know that there's no literal malice intended and I'm just (many times) doing my part to liven the forum up. Its called being a contributor not unlike any other poster here.

Anyway, my post was a response to fluffy the campsite layer, who did ask after all .
And it is true, so I posted the explanation of why they feel the need to post on an Australian forum.

Youre such a great contributor here I have sympathy for your employer if he/she seeks a productive employee. You must be young with little work ethic but dont feel bad, the majority of people like you are alike so you can be rest assured that you are not alone.
