Tom Slick's post was well stated and not frivolous, his reasons for making the post are right there in the original post. Humuhumu's answer was well reasoned and made sense, and she stuck to the topic at hand. It must have been a great effort to do so, but as we can see...It can be done.

I'm sure I'm repeating something already said but yet I plunder on...The numbers may not be as meaningless as they seem merely due to lack of posts. There are several people I have urged to join Tiki Central even though they said "I never have anything to say..." Why I have I urged them to register? Because I guess I must think the numbers mean something. But it's fairly obvious that all zillion members here don't post and therefor the numbers are kind of hollow when making an argument. A meaningless point made in defense of a position helps me determine how sound the rest of the argument is. Or something like that.

As for "free(ing) up user names that were taken by non active members..." I'd rather see folks challenged a little with their creativity. When Tiki Central first opened for business almost everyone wanted to be TikiPulpit, but of course that name got snatched up right away. So as a result of pushing folks creativity a little we have TikiPew, TikiHymnal, TikiSteeple, TikiBaptismalFont...And so on. Far more interesting.
