asked and answered your own question :)
I get what you mean.
Theory trotted out with alarming regularity, seems to fascinate a lot of members.
Does it matter who asks questions so long as it keeps the site fresh?
Question Author
No banker frank it makes no difference who ask the questions to keep the site fresh,you in particular are doing a marvellous job after a few weeks on here.
Yes, if the poster is not really interested in the answers.
Does it matter? Some questions have no specific answers and are designed for debate.
'No banker frank it makes no difference'

Then why make the OP?

It makes a change from you posting questions about other posts which then get removed.
Jordyboy, I have stated, (or opined, if you like) the same view previously.
^ He has :-)
LOl...LOL...yes Jordy, I often have the feeling that the mods in particular are advised to "ramp up" the question count to keep AB floating.
Although in reality , I am sure that it is not happening........BUT...your point is well taken.
However, I am not, as suggested at 1342, "fascinated" by it. If it keeps AB afloat by generating more discussions (or, as some people say, "debates") it might delay the inevitable sinking of the site.

SANDRA,do you think we could keep things floating as you say,if only our lovely Ab Editor was the one to remove posts and not the moderators,with the exception of the lovely MR HUGHES of coarse.
Jordy....I have shot my bolt, as all my suggestions to change AB have been considered and kicked into the long grass.
It’s not to keep things going, Jordy........it’s part of Ed’s recruiting programme.
Applicants for a position in AB Towers must spend a month on the site without going grey, biting their own ankles or running away to join the Foreign Legion.
You should be a Mod Gness.. then we'd all have sensible questions ;-)
Don’t think I didn’t see the wink, Arky! I believe I was once being considered for the position of mod......then Ed sobered up..... :-)
Those that poo-poo the asking of questions are those that are unlikely to ask any
There is only a single vowel difference between ‘MOD’ and ‘MAD’ ...

... just sayin’ ...
Gness, many moons ago I was invited to be an AB mod, I'm crazy sometimes but not insane.
