well jackel, you have to consider too, that all of the members on Rat are there for all kinds of different forums. I believe this one will grow pretty well. It's already jumped up well over 60 new users in the past 2 days from all of us Rats jump'n in. But yes, you're right, alot of times a post will be answered over at Rat before you're even done typing!
Just give it time, this site will become very active I believe!
