Dear forum guests,
Have you ever been hesitant to share your opinion in a forum thread due to fear of negative backlash? If so, I recommend trying what I call; The "fortune-cookie-method". Below is an example of that method:
Member's post: I just downloaded an Artificial Intelligence app. But I have observed negative responses to AI. I can't decide whether to keep it or not. What does everyone think that I should do?
A cookie-fortune-method response: "Making decisions can quite often be difficult. Caution is quite often a favorable way of engaging in a decision-making process".
Not exactly a glamorous way of expressing ideas, thoughts and insights, but a safer way to post in forums. It is a platform on which to build on and expand from.
This approach involves crafting responses that are non-confrontational and avoid taking sides in a discussion. Instead, they offer vague but supportive statements that don't necessarily contribute to the conversation but provide a sense of empathy or understanding towards the original poster's concerns.
While it may not be the most effective method for generating meaningful discussions, it can be a starting point for those who are new to forums or uneasy about expressing their views. Furthermore, it promotes a positive and respectful atmosphere where members are less likely to engage in harmful or hurtful behavior towards one another.
In conclusion, the "fortune-cookie-method" is a simple yet effective way to participate in forums without subjecting yourself to negative reactions or attacks. Give it a try and see how it can enhance your online experience!
