In my case,I check username along with post before responding.This is something I learnt after my first season here in IF.
Also now I feel members are more open to take criticism against their favourite and and also well aware of the format of show and more open to discussion but as mostly no task is there nothing much to discuss.Also there are very few fans supporting their favourite this year which is a plus.But it's quite suprise to see not a single AT this year..
You made some good points, Munni. I agree with the task-based banter and arguments. Yes, I guess this is the missing link.
