The first moc I tried to scan on ss wouldn't scan as I had bought all long life but sa just asked had I bought the item n I just said yes pulling the purple one up out of the bag. So she scanned all of mine

I'm not sure that putting a new thread into DT would deter 'lurkers' to be honest, if a person is registered to the site and signed in they can go anywhere.
The thread has thrived here and Red Fox (bless her) has been real good to us.
There have been lots of new members recently and they have all been saying the same thing, that they have been lurking and reading the thread for ages, too affraid to join in but over time have overcome that fear and now join in. It would be a shame to remove ourselves from here thus preventing 'newbies' from joining us.
I know that there is a person or people that shop in my local and they don't come on here but I have found the relevant shelf empty. That's just life I guess.

The stats would suggest that it would very much deter lurkers. This very thread, started 9 days ago has at time of posting racked up 131,790 views. Which would place it in the top 10 currently active Grabbit threads. And easily in the top 200 threads of all time. Don't think it's well-hidden in It's Gone, that may have been the case at first but everyone and his dog knows about it now. It's got to the stage that it probably wouldn't make a blind bit of difference if the thread was fully out in the open. :eek:

Whereas the most viewed thread ever on DT has 81,721 views, the second most viewed has 34,066.

I think it's better to discourage lurking not by excluding lurkers altogether, but by encouraging them to participate... Which is why I think a temporary move to DT would be advantageous. And be very public about it. It's far easier to pluck up the courage to join in if you've already gone through the registration process.

After having a thread there, and no doubt thousands of freshly registered MSEers, move it back where it belongs. A few more threads here, then rinse and repeat...

We could even run a competition to estimate the number of registrations during the away period :cool:
