This is something I've learned from online game forums. You actually have to be divisive to get a high amount of concurrent users.

It only seems to be the shit-shows that anyone feels obligated to post in.

Well I think you're wrong, fuck you and your opinion /s

I actually don't know to what extent I agree with you, but your theory certainly feels plausible to me. It reminds me of the internet adage about how the best way to get a right answer to your question is to be wrong. I can't remember what it's called.

Cunningham's law. And just to buck the trend, you didn't have to get it wrong to get the right answer ;).

Aye, cunningham seemingly meant it as the fastest answer though, which was the sentence right afterwards in that wiki entry. So maybe mr. anarchist-with-a-machine-fetish would have gotten an answer earlier if he had said it was the anti-murphy's law.

I'm okay with that.

I feel happy if like 2 people interact with my question or post.
