What do you write when you think you don't have anything to say? I go on an Internet Forum where discussions are held about all sorts of subjects. I marvel at how freely advice and opinion are shared. Did I say shared? I should have said how they are so liberally spread around, right or wrong.
I have limited experience with Forums but it has been my observation that few threads stay on topic for long. It is somewhat like Middle School. Someone decides it doesn't matter what started the thread it's as good a place as any to give irrelevant input. With that, the thread is now off topic. Some bright or annoyed soul may bring it back but there are always a few people who refuse to be constrained or respectful to the people having a serious discussion.
Those frustrated on the thread may then take their conversation to private messaging, in which case it is no longer in a place shared by many or commented on by them. Discussions on Politics or Religion seem to step on the most toes. Those who disagree either kidnap the thread by taking it off topic or turn it into attempts to be funny. That shortly flops as it is annoying to the people who are serious, so the end result is that people just walk away from the thread.
Rants are good because they warn people of many dangers out there about which people need to be careful and avoid a variety of things. Rants also teach people lots of ways to resolve things that seemed insurmountable. Answers to questions is a focus of many Forums. There are Forums of so many subjects and hobbies, news, medical problems, and almost anything one might want to share in with others.
If you are looking for a Forum, type a subject on Google followed by Forum. Looking for a blog? Type a subject in Google, add blog after it and you will be amazed at how many there out there that will meet anyone's needs. Would anyone ever need to feel lonely again?
