That is how internet forums work, bud. You'll always have a small percentage who actually create content that the majority consume.
Youtube is an example, more people visit Youtube than upload videos
Most people Visit TripAdvisor but don't post reviews
Wikipedia has a page on the topic:

true, very true...but how many of these people constantly snatch from others and vehemently REFUSE to help when called upon ? Like a hard core "No i wont give back at all...i refuse to"... point blank
(actually am sure there are many)
and this guy is active now, like "give me info on this please" gets the info "cheers for that" ....then back later "looking to smash this one...need some intel" gets the info "cheers, i'll TOFTT soon" doesnt help no one of course .. and then "yo which one is better...tough call...dont want to risk getting the wrong one....need some help here please for you guys that have done all this leg work".....gets the advice "cheers"
all we ask for is just 1, just 1, give back.....and blatant refusal is the interpretation i am taking when he has never done it.... to make matters worse i actually think he lied when he said he has only ever punted in his life 1 time and that i was eeoons ago.
i understand what you are saying...there is a reason people like that are called leechers sure but in this case this fellow punter actively participates only for self service and then when ever we request something from him ....he pretty much refuses and threatens to leave the board
its a tad annoying. i feel lke i am only going to PM recommendations to select people now
