A number of people have remarked that less people seem to be posting.
Is this true according to your stats?
Is it because there are less bargains to be found to post in Grabbit?
Is it because as some have mentioned they are getting theirs before posting in case the eBay buyers spoil it by drawing attention to a price error?
Is it because (as others have said) that they will no longer post Freebies for example because of the negative posts that follow?
Is it because people are having difficulty moving around the site and especially trying to post?
Martin---Do the stats show a drop in postings?
Are we in danger of suffocating our own Golden Goose.

I think ,if it is happening at all ,that people are just getting used to the new site0

I think it has something to do with people finding there way about, after the change over.:)0

Yes, I agree, I think maybe people didnt visit the site whilst the upgrade was going on and are now starting to come back, plus finding their way around.0

Another thing to bear in mind is that the post counter works a little differently on this system.
It recognises when you have been on a thread and doesn't add to the counter unless you actually post again to that thread!! :eek:
On the old system simply viewing a thread would add to the post counter!!0 -
The post count per day is up - don't worry
and more people are using the site than ever beforeMartin Lewis, Money Saving Expert.

Have a look here and you will see the daily topic totals increased massively yesterday.Hi. Martin has asked me to tell you that I'm the Board Guide on the The Most Popular Chat Tips Ever Board board, which means I'm a volunteer to help the board(s) run smoothly, and I can move and change posts there. However, do remember, board guides don't read every post. If you spot an abusive or illegal post then please report it to abuse@moneysavingexpert (it's not part of my role to deal with abuse). Any views are mine and not the official line of MoneySavingExpert.com.0
