My theory here is that after around 10 to 15 posts on a thread, the thread goes completely off track.
Admin should close most threads, the question is answered by the 5th post.

But the site loves to count posts.......1.6mil.............probably <1% of value


& loves to count members......116k............probably <1% active.

Why do some villages have a manned post and others do not?

The real question being asked should be....
What is the real purpose of having an actual person in the shack?
I only go thru that lane when it's raining and I don't want to lower my window to use the card to enter.
Yes, a little sarcasm

I have been coming to TV since 2006, and I never knew exactly the reasoning for taking the gates down. I noticed they do it, but never exactly why.
Thanks to the OP, for asking the question, and thanks for the answers.
As for the sarcasm, meh.
