I use this code forum a little bit differently. I use it as a resource to reference commonly asked questions. I use to locate an answer and share the thread links in different FB groups.
What compels me to answer a post? Or when DO I answer a post? Well …
When a title has good keywords or a complete thought … I open the thread to see if I can help. If I can’t help then I try to bump the question. I amswer when I think I can help reword the answer that has already been given because the person is still confused about the solution. I answer when I have an existing tutorial video that may help find a solution. I answer when the person I feel the person genuinely wants to LEARN and isn’t simply looking for a custom code to be created for free. I answer for many reasons … but that should give you an idea.
Why do I answer? I feel it’s not a secret that I am very pro-community. The community is the very reason why I even started my video tutorials. I love this community and I will continue to contribute as much as I can when I have time.
