I'd say the primary reason to post on a forum is so that other people see it. It's funny when I get spicy somewhere and then the person tries to lecture me on "maybe I should say my point nicer so the person I'm arguing against is more likely to change their mind," as if that were the primary goal.
- starkd 4y agoWhat if the primary reason is not about your own visibility, but what you can learn from other commentators. Not accusing you of egomania, but expecting your voice to matter in such forums might unnecessarily feed your ego.
- jrm4 4y agoSure, that's part of it. I'm not saying I'm posting then running away in victory. Always appreciate challenges too.
