It’s obviously to liven up the Q&A box.
When someone takes the time to write a question, I think it’s completely misguided to complain that it’s “low quality” or say, “Give me a better question.” I’m the kind of person who thinks you should make an effort yourself before complaining about your customers.
That said, this bulletin board has been around for a long time, so naturally, it repeats a lot of the same topics. People who’ve been following it for years may think, “This again?” But even if newcomers search, the relevant posts don’t always come up properly, so they end up asking the same questions. And the board system itself is so outdated that there’s no built-in way to liven things up. So we just have to do our best under these circumstances.
Basically, you have to swing at every pitch that comes your way. Even if it’s a ball, you get down on one knee, take a swing, and somehow turn it into a home run—that’s my Ohtani-like mindset, I suppose. As an aside, if he eventually goes through a prolonged slump due to poor form or an injury, then revamps his swing and makes a comeback, I’m sure the media will start calling him “New Ohtani.” Another aside: apparently, hotels with “New” in their names are usually pretty old. Like “Hotel New Koshigaya,” for example. Takes me back—Snake Man Show.
Anyway, getting back to the point: while I’m batting questions back like that, people like you start feeling inspired to ask something themselves and post it. Then, if I bat those questions back in an entertaining way, the number of questions gradually increases. Sometimes a question can lead the answerers to dig into a deeper issue. Other times, the question itself is so profound that opinions split, arguments break out, and the answerers start fighting among themselves. Once that happens, the Q&A box is finally serving its original purpose, isn’t it?
If this place really took off, the club might make a nice profit by turning it into a book, while the answerers wouldn’t get a penny. Still, the experience of creating smoke where there was no fire and then actually starting one isn’t entirely wasted—and it gives me something to do. Sometimes I get so absorbed in it that I end up sleep-deprived, though. Haha.
Anyway, if you’ve come here, found it interesting, and enjoyed it, then help us liven the place up, okay? A relationship at a dating club works the same way: it’s not something one person can build all by themselves. What matters is your attitude.
