I'll respectfully disagree. The big draw for the site is the numbers, not the community. The ratio of members to lurkers is usually 20/80 or around there. The question is why aren't all the lurkers joining. I predict that measures to improve the community, i.e. post quality and the level of discussion, would improve lurker attach rate.

A good portion of those lurkers might be bots.
