Hi,

What do we call to a person who joins, actively posts, answers questions in an English forum site?

Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I wondered that too.
Those who answer are contributors, but it's too narrow.

What's wrong with "Member"?

No, I'm just looking for a special name.

We could coin forummates (FO-rum-MATES), sort of reminiscent of roommates.

What about forummer? Or forumer?

Please correct me if I am wrong!

Thanks.

We could coin quite a few nonsense words: forumites, forumsters, forumees, forumaholics, etc. I think the best proposal is Marius' forum posters.
