If you read a thread that only has replies that are unsavory, missing the point, dogmatic, etc. reply to the thread for the Original Posters sake. When you reply to that thread I have found the best thing to do is not to address the other replies/posters but just straight up answer the question cutting out all the BS. Try it, see if you like doing it, and whether or not it cuts down some of the BS on that thread. There are plenty of lurkers on the forum that do not post for various reasons such as the reason you stated but as the saying goes: you have to be the change you wish to see in the world. |
