I’ve always been a “lurker” on all platforms and communities because when I do have a question or would like to contribute my first thought has become:
Actually, let me google it first
In which case I’ll usually have some answer. Usually it isn’t a complete answer but enough for me to not want to share my question anymore.
It’s really really gotten bad in the last few months. Results are usually full of those SEO Blog Spam, or completely random things… or sometimes even nothing at all.
