I don't expect any serious minded newbie to begin the forum posting on wall observer if not for the benefits of getting merits, there's nothing that could help improve a member or newbie to being a quality poster
Seriously!
Wall Observer is a Megaspam thread so basically in that thread, you will be overwhelming with many posts which are either shit posts or very insightful posts.
I totally disagree with you if you think there are nothing to learn from posts in Wall Observer. By saying so, you are missing important points and you either need more experience or just short sighted.
