Mostly they are much too time consuming. Every time I go to a large forum, especially for the first time, I search for one thing and end up with 20 windows open going into 200 different discussions, often finding interesting things having nothing with what I searched for, and weeding through miles of garbage, and the next thing I know it's tomorrow.
