Handling Duplicate Forum Questions

You can’t control social media it will drive you nuts. Society is too complex and diverse, what stands today will change tomorrow. I don’t believe any amount of statistics will help it’s not that kind of issue.

There are many reasons why people post the way they do, some are in a rush, some may have special needs and find social interaction difficult, some may be just starting out and are confused by the complexity of modular synthesis, some may just be naturally chatty and inquisitive, some may not be internet savvy and used to forums, the list is as diverse as all human life itself.
My point being you can only be responsible for your own personal space and actions. It’s not your job to reach out to everyone or answer every query, nor should you try because it will lead to frustration overflowing and nobody wins. If you feel uncomfortable answering a query, have other things on your mind, are tired just let it go, the sky won’t fall and the world won’t stop spinning. You’re not a machine.

I believe most people are good intentioned, but none of us are perfect and will make errors of judgement form time to time. Being exposed to public scrutiny and demands on a daily basis must be challenging if you haven’t been used to it. Celebrities go through the same sort of thing.

I don’t think you have to cut yourself off from the community, just approach it from a different angle. Give yourself some breathing space and filter out the things that would cause stress. Enjoy some of the music being created by your vision, enjoy the company of likeminded people.
