Hi colettebytes,
Thank you for this suggestion and your contributions to the forum, we are super happy to have such thoughtful members!!
In truth we never really expected to migrate over people from the forum, I think migration was the wrong word to use as it suggests a move away from Telegram and that isn’t the case. Of course, we want our valued telegram members to experience the forum, but we don’t want them to move away from our telegram groups either
We have considered a chat section within the forum itself in the past and it may be something we implement in the future. Typically the flow of conversations within a forum environment tends to be quite in-depth, where discussions can be enjoyed time and time again due to the more persistent nature of the posts over that of chat.
Short posts are ok if they contain additional information that is added to the overall flow of the thread, so a reply with a simple I agree or something along those lines is not best suited to the forum enviroment.
If you do agree with a post, then usually adding the reason why for example is enough even if that in itself is only a couple of lines.
Also because of the way in which people watch their own threads for replies, it can be tempting to bump a thread up the trending list by posting in the thread and those that are subscribed to the thread all get a notification, if then the post that was added to the thread and triggered the bump was irrelevant or devoid of content then it damages the success of the thread but has wider implications to the quality of the overall forum.
What we want to do is promote quality of content, interesting ideas that people want to engage with and follow.
I am steadily adding more and more content both regarding SingularityNET directly through #agichat but also through adding threads about subjects that interest me like this thread
Also, images speak a thousand words and learning how to format here also draws people towards your ideas.
I hope this finds you well
All the best,
Tim,
