There's only so much I have to say about my conlangs, and when I post
neographies, those really don't necessitate more than a few "I like
that" or "that's cool". It's difficult for me to get into linguistic
theory as I am not a lingust and personally theory topics bore me (no
offense). So, if we were all to stick with conlanging, the list would
be quiet indeed. Not that that's a bad thing, buti personally find
many of the tangents interesting. I tend to not post a lot about my
conlanging process, becuase I mainly read the list to see what others
come up with, not to solve a problem. But, that's just me. :)
