Recently I've noticed a couple of trends that may or may not be related, so I decided to start a poll to see what I might learn.
First, we have an increasing number of new members, both to the forum and to tarot in general, and second, I've been getting fewer and fewer comments on my posts (oh dear, it couldn't be my politics or my occult leanings, could it? ). In trying to put two-and-two (well, actually five or six) together, I decided to ask what discourages people from contributing to threads. I can think of a few reasons:
I don't feel that I have anything to add.
I don't think I will learn anything from participating. (This isn't intended to be a "trick" question.)
I'm new and/or shy about sticking my neck out.
I'm not a subscriber and don't have access to some of the content.
I find the topic too complicated or confusing.
The topic doesn't interest me enough to participate.
I didn't turn multi-choice on, so pick the one that happens most frequently.
