Have you noticed that postings on hair, if A Marine should continued to be called a Marine gets more responses and postings than post that address furthering your career, obtaining employment after your service, or furthering your education?<div><br></div><div>Just my two cents</div>

Have you noticed that more people watch trashy reality television instead of CSPAN? 

Not everything on the interwebz has to be so highfalutin.

Entertainment is a large part of the internet.  Since RP is something most of us do in our free time, we tend to focus on the more entertaining topics.  This isn't AKO, so why should it be treated as such?

I've tried to give this some thought, and over time have drawn the conclusion that the threads asking functional questions due receive constructive responses & answers. While there may only be a handful of responses, the comments cover the question thoroughly and gives the individual options to resolve the issue.

I think there are a multitude of members who may read the question, scan the answers and believe they have nothing more to add so leave the thread as it is. This gives the appearance that little is paid attention to yet is not the case.

The attention grabbing threads garner comments galore simply because they peak interest from a wide variety of members, a piling-on so to speak and a somewhat friendly competition attempting to out-do the previous comment. This is unnecessary in the true question threads because once a complete answer has been obtained, there is no reason to pile-on.

It's just my observation.

I think that is boils down to what the "flavor of the day" is for some folks.&nbsp; I like to pick and choose what I comment on based on where the conversation can go, what kind of positive effect it can have on the community and if it can help someone out...just to name a few.
