Personally, I’ve made two usefwl connections (one research-peer and one ladder-person) via the forum. One of them reached out to me because they had noticed that I had a tendency to produce comments they found interesting. The other one I reached out to because I noticed they had a tendency to produce comments I found interesting.
The point is: the forum is a watering hole where people can cheaply get to know one another without even aiming specifically for that.

Useful to know, thanks. I think that’s an interesting way to think about it.
