Hullo Piotr. No, it's just that people very often do not post their entire playbook or the complete output from their runs. This it often misleads responders, who go down various dead ends before finally requesting that the OP post *everything*, then at last the problem gets resolved. In a long thread, this often happens more than once, as different people take and interest and get involved.
There's no problem with long threads, I think Kai was just making the point that with too little info from the OP, resolutions can take longer... When some one provides only edited versions of their playbook or its output, they are making assumptions about the location and cause of the problem that may be unwarranted. It's very understandable - Ansible output is quite verbose - but still mostly a bad idea. Like you, I will often "have a go" at a question that is within my grasp, but if a question is not one I can answer I stay silent. Regards, K.
