Why do so few actually use the forums to express something and cast it out there into the ether?

I had a conversation with another girl here about how so few actually write anything to compare worlds. Yes, a conversation would be great but there are so many who don't know how to start one here!

I do try but people often think I'm pathetic for sharing. Or like I'll respond to posts but most people don't respond to me at all.

But if I post some random dumb shit people love it.

@AlchemyFox It is kind of a waste to post anything meaningful.
But yeah the dumber the thread, the more likely people are to respond.
The overall intelligence here is special ed. level.

@CestManan for me it's an outlet. I've been here long enough a few people will talk with me. But even they'll disappear mid Convo sometimes.

I bet $20 the OP doesn't even respond to my comment.

It's a poor excuse for conversation but it's worse IRL so here we are 😂

@AlchemyFox I think part of the problem is that this forum is often frustrating for many reasons.
It is hard to take anything serious on here.
