I agree. I find these forums very fun and so do many others because we minimize gossip, chit-chat, and focus on the technology in the absence of bullying found in so many other forums and email list.
For many of us, facts and low chit-chat are much more fun!
This is not "The Gossip Channel" or "The Entertainment Network"

That goes to show you that "fun" is relative!
I think writing code without modules is a waste of time and not fun at all!
Another person might just love it!
