Of the 144 that have never posted, do you know if they visit the site regularly, or the first time was the only time? As there interest is noted at time they register, could an e-mail not be sent to them after a period from some ones last hit with a list of the latest threads related to that interest? I don't know anything about computers really so I don't know how hard this will be to set up.
First of all how do you know that 144 members haven't posted? I didn't think I posted the URL for the stats

Your right there must have been some interest in the first place for people to register, I do email zero posters now and again, but it's more of a general email and not aimed at a specific group, and I don't like to do this too often as it could be considered spam

I could create another user profile with a drop down in it where you would have to choose a category to continue with registration, IE main interest, trains, planes, boats etc which I feel you have come up with a good idea, in fact I'm off to do it now then I could be more specific with emails.

I have no idea what makes someone take the time to register then not even post, but there is that old saying, you can lead a horse to water but you can't make him post OK maybe not quite that
