I'd like to say something from my position. Yes, I am trying to participate in EEVBlog contest. That is the main reason why I started to writing, but I was "using" this forum before just as a passive reader. Since I am not native English speaking person, I am using much more mature forum than this one, which is written in my language. BTW it is the largest forum in whole country ( elektroda.pl/rtvforum ). So it isn't like that I started to have some questions right now. I am writhing short posts, because I have to double check almost every sentence while writing and they are still with some errors. (Try to write some elaborate posts in your second / third language).
One of aims of this contest is to bring new users here and it is working. Sure, there are many weak posts and answers, just to collect 5 posts, but this is a rule of contest, so you shouldn't be surprised. After few days everything will be back to normal, but users like me will be encouraged to participate.
PS. Yes, it was my fifth post, and now I will be writing only, when I will have something to say
