I admin and moderate a number of different forums and see that all the time, and all those forums welcome newcomers. Many of the ones that never post or post once and leave either get their question(s) answered or find the forum isn't what they were looking for in the first place. Plus there are a ton of folks that just lurk for a long time before they ever post.
