Not a total lurker here, but I have mainly 2 reasons why I don't participate as much as I probably would/could/should... 1. Time. A discussion typically only lasts one day, and after that its mostly silent. Alongside my job, I simply can't find enough spare "thinking-time" to really write a thoughtful comment in that time frame. I feel that my comments would be more of a knee-jerk reaction than a real addition of value. 2. Language. My mother tongue ist german, not english. While I've been told that my english is quite reasonable, I still feel insecure in it, especially when I read incredibly well-spoken comments. And I do regularly make some mistakes, especially in grammar, and I don't like making mistakes in public (I guess nobody does). And of course, it takes longer to write a comment - see #1...
