Free Posted May 15, 2008 Report Share Posted May 15, 2008 When I start a new topic I want to learn. When responding, I'm just sharing my opinion. I have a blog for 'teaching purposes' and I can pass my time way better than posting on the forums :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenberg Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I have often wondered about this. This appears to be a sensible explanation for you posting on this topic. I imagine some similar explanations apply in most cases. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CSGibson Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I post because it's a good sounding board for ideas, and because I think my own ideas, while not always correct, are generally sound enough that I can make a good sounding board for others. It's also a nice way to connect with people my age in the bridge community (the forums definitely trend younger than the club games I play in).

mikeh Posted May 16, 2008 Report Share Posted May 16, 2008 I like the interaction... the exchange of viewpoints. We have some very talented people on this forum, and from various bridge cultures... which broadens my understanding and appreciation of the game. Also, I suspect that I am a frustrated teacher.. had I not sort of fallen into law school, which I attended because I was in my last year of engineering when I realized that I didn't like engineering at all, I might have become a teacher or lecturer :) So I enjoy helping others grow in their enjoyment of the game, to the limited extent that I can.. it is a form of giving back to the game that has been a very important part of my life. I enjoy everyone here....even the people I seem to always be criticizing... any forum where everyone agreed with a few 'gurus' would quickly become boring.
