STUDque Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Just wanted to send a shoutout to all you lurkers. You know who you are. You read posts but never submit your own.

I'd say that leads to a more friendly environment for all involved and (should) help folks feel more comfortable to share their opinions.

Wannabegolfer67 Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Well, I would have thought I fell in the "lurker" category because I don't post much but somehow I must have made it into the 9%!! I usually just like to read what some of the more frequent posters have to say, some of you guys really crack me up at times!!! Today, I will do what others will not so that...

StrokerAce Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 WHOA! SQ doing some analytic research on the MGS community... might be the one time in my life I could ever possibly be considered in the 1 percent. haha ...just a reminder of the search function and it's capability. -- If you're looking for something, the odds are good it's been asked/written/commented, etc. -- If it's old, feel free to post a new thread; things do get outdated -- If it's not there go ahead and post something new DO NOT feel obligated to post. It is perfectly reasonable to simply read the articles and postings from others.... don't be shy about sharing your opinion or thoughts...no one is going to shout you down on here and everyone - everyone - has a great deal of respect for each other. a good starting point: click that link on the right column that says "New Content" and go from there... you'll find something interesting and worthwhile Driver- Cobra Aerojet LS Woods- Cobra LTD 3w 15*, 5W 19*, F9 24* Irons- XXIO X (6-A) Wedges- Callaway Jaws Raw (54/58) Putter- Bettinardi BB56 Ball- Maxfli Tour X Buggy- Motocaddy M7 GPS Remote Electric Caddy Bag- Motocaddy Dry-Series Proudly testing for 2024: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I pulled the picture from Google. It just spoke to general populations on social media sites. I would say the center section (9%) is probably a little bigger for MGS but I didn't actually analyze the post counts. Even still, it's done some good getting the conversation rolling that's for sure. To answer your question, the top 1% on 60k members would be 600 people. Which is about right for MGS as those are generally 500-1000 posts.

Certain number of posts?To answer your question, the top 1% on 60k members would be 600 people. Which is about right for MGS as those are generally 500-1000 posts. OK so now you've got my wheels turning (which can be dangerous). I did a quick check and spot 600 has 35 posts. So..... Almost everyone. The curious thing is the viewable list only has about 30k members so maybe the 60k number includes archived or deleted accounts? Or maybe the viewable list has a limit for how much it can even catalog? The last members on the list have 0 so it wouldn't be a cut off for only those that have posted. If we're counting the 1% of 30k, that would be anyone over 100 posts and the 9% amounts to basically anyone that has posted more than once.
