I hadn't realised I have twice as many posts as you David and am the clear leader in the gobshit stakes. Not sure I follow the reference to Pareto's law but anyway. I still think this forum would be a much better/more active place if the google group didn't exist but that is the choice of those in power.

Interesting post.

FWIW you only really need 2 people to post for a forum to work, once it goes to 1 its a blog.

I guess the success of the google groups list, the stylus forum and Locostbuilders all reduce posts on here.

p.s. I'm only on 242

I've spent the last 66 years wondering who invented the 80/20 rule and lo and behold the answer pops up on a car forum. Amazing :lol:

The Stylus forum is similar really , but only 160 ever produced as kits if you believe manufacturer's figures , even less ever finished and the posters are either into motorsport or still building/modifying , many being the 2nd or 3rd buyers/owners. I've not actually checked out who posts and how often but could guesstimate it's no more than a dozen . My excuse for probably being the highest poster is I'm answering questions for people who've never seen a build manual , as second hand owners , there being no factory since 2007 from memory.
