I don't want anyone to feel like they can't comment, I know this post has got a bit unproductive in the conversation but it's an important topic and you should make the points you want.

Typically it happens when I'm not actually making a point and it's better to move on than spend the time required to sort out my thoughts.

I get what you mean, I do the same. I just don't want this place to end up like reddit where people don't want to comment or post.
