This is just off-topic here but still, you cannot deny that in some cases the local board participants are more active and engaging and they should not be ignored. Also, I don't think if it will do any good if people started to create new topics purposely when they are not required.
It's very easy for a person to create a topic that's got 100 characters about things like:
- "Should I keep buying more bitcoin or hold?"
- "Bitcoin will reach $100,000 by end of the year, analyst says"
- "Microstrategy buys more Bitcoin"
- Topics like these
- And even using AI to generate the OP, which I've seen a few people get away with on the main boards!
So is it worthwhile? No, because the amount of effort being put to create a new topic compared to a new reply is, for most people, negligent.
You are right, it is not worthwhile though there could be odd exceptions.
and noted at the end of several OPs were questions such as "what do you think?" and "what should I do?". Many of those are the sort of topics that been started for purposes other than genuine discussion.
