If you would be more like a regular person in your speech ...they are more interested in content than in the delivery thereof. My posting is content-focused. If they are more interested in content than delivery, then why would they be so distracted from it by my delivery? <ggg> Seriously, Haqi, there's a contradiction there. Folks who are really interested in content read right past any irritating delivery, drawn by the promise of content. From where I sit, it looks like bonding, not content, is the real interest. Bonding is fostered through shared language and expression, aka delivery. Both alien expression and the insertion of dissonant content disrupt that clubby mood and trigger resistance to the content. And the content inserter. and there would be more of them Response volume is a good thing? Haqi, I appreciate your efforts at creating a kinder, gentler environment by advising me on how to blend in . But that presupposes that blending in is instrumental for me. than in the delivery thereof. "Thereof"? Now, that sounds like my kind of language usage. <ggg>
