Real Forums, Real Knowledge, Real Impact

My solution is to have the forums be structured more like stackexchange so that good answers and questions get upvotes and vise versa

But there is nothing like the human being telling another human being something, you know there was time before computers/engines and I wasn't even born before that age, and I know the importance on 1v1 conversation even online.

So it is not so much the engines as they help but they don't always (or really never) give a clear understanding and therefore are limited to a certain point. It is like the difference in watching math videos instead of getting 1v1 help with a teaching in math class, if you know where I am coming from.

It is different and of course communication is better, no it won't be perfect(as we are human beings) but it is much better than being a loner with a great technology. What good is such a great technology if people don't understand it or use it to the best of their ability? Knowing this it is useless without proper guidance especially in the beginning stages of analysis and explanation in chess. I say this because chess is not necessarily the easiest board game to understand, especially when you add the strategy, so communication is key and if the forums looked more upon it with structure it would definitely aid people, even so if it is "rubbish" to a certain point as it is still helpful.

Also since there are different people in the forums there are different point of views, strategies and witnesses and because of this is draws the better benefit for the lower rated players and intermediate players while it gives productivity and meaningful action to the higher rated players in the chess community in chess.com.

Well it is good that we have common views in this topic, as it is very important I do believe for the long-term. Also I do think that other topics have value as well, there is no mistaken it, but for this specifically I just think it is about the productivity and eliminating foolishness and lack of order in which with enough people can help to bring some good within the community. 

I don't mind topics that are off-topic or different, however I do have a concern about the topics that have no relevance or direction, so therefore it makes no sense to me and probably for the rest of the people who actually take chess more seriously.

Surely their needs to be a balance of seriousness, improvement and fun, if this were to come there would be less disruption and lack of order and would give more to everyone instead of what is happening here(currently in the forums), not to mention all the negatives in which is terrible as well.
