I think the quality of posts improves when a person has taken the time to read what other people have written, which means that since they have paid such a price...they are likely to post more meaty and meaningful postings that reflect (either in support or opposition) positions that they have read within that thread.Posting is cheap and trivial, but engaging in true discourse takes work... and a forum culture that focuses on quality discourse expects people to post less, and listen to their fellows more.</blockquote>
