People are still seeing the forum as a working place, not a forum where you can post your opinions or thoughts and actually engage in conversations wherever you want ...sad..
That’s also largely because the rules of many campaigns does incentivize you to post more than you usually would. Many years ago campaigns would simply „sponsor“ users, meaning that you get a specific BTC amount if you wear a signature. This would not include any other condition.
I think there are good reason why this changed and there are more conditions now, but the post quality sometimes does suffer from that.
