Generally speaking why do people post on a message board? Why do other people then post in relation to the first post? Why do people start a new thread making vague references to another?

There are as many answers as there are stars in the sky.

I will however, answer your specific questions with no authority save for what you give me.





1.) We are a community, and self-policing is part of that.
2.) Attempting to help by asking probing questions to fill in lacking details in the original alert
3.) General curiosity; is a very possible answer



Maybe, identifying the point of failure in security is often an important step is correcting the system.



I guess it depends on the BS. It very well could.

Is it wrong to show concern, to ask questions, or offer advice?

Or is any response other than " I'm sorry that happened to you" and then move on with no more thought the only valid response? Originally Posted by Bob McV
