Perhaps it's the wrong question?
Could it just be that the guests are happy to be just that, guests? I have a few friends that regularly read but never post.
Perhaps the people that join, come across the site find it interesting and jump straight in?
Maybe some are put off? Maybe some are encouraged to join because of the way the members join together to discourage the idiots rather than allow them to take control?
We seem to get the really strange ones turning up about once every three months, (or in my case daily), it's not often they come in pairs, we even have some members go out of their way to encourage the fools to post more, these members usually hide behind such terms as being fair or freedom of speech.
