forced to say stuff even though i am in the op
Wellll, honestly, I really dislike those posts that bold and enumerate and specify questions. People that see threads like that just read the OP, scroll down to the Quick Reply box, and click Post and don't really read other people's posts. Well some people do, but really other people's posts don't have much of an effect on them other than perhaps bringing another idea to light in their head or something. The point being, the idea of a forum is to have people discuss topics. It's hard to discuss things when you're presented with a questionnaire and you just have to fill it out, click post and move on.
Discussion is also lacking in places outside of OVP, too - forums like B/W lose their discussion when all the posters have to do is say "yes i liked this! i liked it because this!" in every single post. No one argues in threads like that, and while I generally dislike being a part of an argument, arguments are discussion and honestly I think they should be promoted (not flaming/trolling etc. though). And yes, scrolling through threads where everything is just a reply to questions gets annoying, if not only for the repetitiveness in the appearance of posts but also in the substance of posts. People are bound to say the same thing eventually in that manner.
tl;dr I'm against 123 posts. Pro-Discussion.
