I agree that there should be a line but I have trouble seeing where the line should be. I post a lot less than I used to. Part of it is that the longer you see the same people writing things, you pretty much know how a topic is going to turn out.

I've also lost a lot of desire to start new threads beacuse I feel like a new thread needs to have a 3 paragraph essay attached to it. Although I think it's a bit inappropriate to just quote an article and say 'discuss' it should be acceptable to quote an article and write something like "hey, I don't really know much about this but I find it quite interesting. Does anyone have any knowledge or experience they would like to share?"

At a glance, both openings have about the same amount of direction given but at least in the second one, the poster is attempting to reach out to the potential audience. Unfortunately, both types of threads get locked.
