Surviving the /qa/ coaltalogue - Day 42
Writing blogs did a pretty good job of teaching me how to actually do the process without relying on copying someone else's technique, and also doing it in a somewhat "professional" way.
/qa/ has no tradition of science in general, and psychology in particular. There is no research here, there is no hypothesis, no literature review, no statistical analysis, no experimental design, just a bunch of anecdotal evidence. I've started gathering my evidence on how good /qa/ is in moderating.
Well, my parents' attitude is that if you want to learn, you have to learn by doing. So, this is my journey. The problem is that when you've been on /qa/ for a couple of days, you've already experienced so much of what this board is that there really isn't anything new that would capture your zoomer ADHD-ridden brain's attention. When you're already somewhat familiar with the subject, you will have already noticed that the "interesting" things do not last, so after you've done something like this or that, you may experience this feeling of déjà vu where you've done the exact same experiment or done something in the exact same way on some occasion, and here you are again, doing the exact same thing all over again. I mean, the result is different because it has been shown that /qa/ does not remember the content once it gets to the archive, but the learning part gets really boring, so it's even less likely that /qa/ will give you a chance to make stuff interesting enough.
