MODERATORS
I think maybe the forums give the illusion of a longer discussion because a low effort reply is given the same weight as a really in-depth reply post.
It bumps the post back up to the top too so that kind of encourages continued discussion in a way Reddit posts don't. So that's a benefit to forums.
