I've used two other website forums, both of which were totally unrelated to spirituality.
Most forums have so many posts and so many differing views it's so easy easy to feel lost.
My experiences on other forums have taught me a few things, and I'm not sure if they apply here but they might:
1. The feeling you get in your body when you read someone's post is a good indicator of the worth of their post to you.
2. Verbosity is
sometimes an indicator of someone who is lost in intellectual pusuits.
3. Sometimes the "best ever" posts come from guys who very rarely post at all ('lurkers'). Sometimes those who never post but just read, are sitting there smiling and enjoying the ride more than anyone who does post.... and you wish they would post!!!
4. Being a well-liked or popular poster is generally a pretty good sign of someone who might be able to help you.
5. Being a despised poster, hated by everyone, can also sometimes be a sign of someone who has a few brilliant points mixed in amongst a lot of personal stuff, which blurs the picture for those who get riled by such personalities.
Sometimes....
