Forums are entertainment. At least that was one of the purposes of them. More than once I've been educated on them too about a lot of things. If I go to fix something and I'm not that sure what I'm getting into, YouTube to the rescue. If it's been done, someone made a video of it and I'm more than grateful for their efforts and I tell them so. They may not read it, but the Google overlords see it.
My local community has a FB page that has a bunch of idiots on it and it is soooo much fun to troll them. You are so nice and syrupy to them and as noted somewhere else here, it's a talent to troll the idiots to right where you want them, then, simply shut up and leave them hanging. They freak out.
