Some of my reasons for not participating:
There has been insufficient explanation of the research. For instance, why was Babble selected?? Is the author under the false impression that Babble is a typical internet forum. It's is FAR from typical, as most of us know. Writing an article which would give that impression is simply not good research.
I also would never be part of a study which does not allow blocked posters participation. That's blatant bias in the population selection. Is that to keep out negative comments?? How in the world is that a fair representation of this site and it's impact on the lives of it's visitors?
There's more, but I'm too annoyed to continue...
