RallyPoint mandates that every post be in the form of a question. Do you feel this limits the flow of information?

Of course, the "in the form of a question" makes RP different from other social media. But what are your thoughts about it?

We agree with you! The current limitation is only on desktop, and that should change next week. You'll be able to just share links and personal updates as well very soon.

I thing that we can try sharing interesting content not only for discussion but also for good mood

Yes, I find that weird. Why must be a question???

Capt Bob Abbott I hate it. It definitely limits the flow. Sometimes I wind up feeling dumb because I have to say something trite like 'Do you agree?' just to conform, when I'm not actually looking for agreement, but rather discussion in general.

I think this has been changed and you can now post, without having to post a question.

Yes...it does limit the flow of information because there are some people that may just want to relay things that are informative and beneficial to others on the site. However, having said that, RP does have a right to have their own policies in place and run the site as they choose to do so.

I think that the question phrasing limits content no more than it makes the trivia in Jeopardy harder. It doesn't alter the content, just forces phrasing to be interrogative.
