Possibly because they either

a: find out what they need and go happily on their way
or
b: don't find out what they need and go elsewhere to find out.

. . . or

c: Have posted the question on multiple sites and forgot to check back.

It's a common problem. I administer another site (dealing with analytical chemistry) and see the same thing there.

homie, Uhh...No. We'll ignore that.
How 'bout this - They just needed "SoMething" special and then skedaddled? Swish!

fish, that is funny! Ice Dancing? :lol: all around the Kymco forum? Got pics? :lol:

If these members drop off there's still a good chance they'll show up again another time. Also a good chance that they forgot their sign in info :roll:
