My guess is that people here want what pretty much anybody in a shared 
context wants: consideration and respect for their experiences. You 
don't have to unilaterally decide what interests people; if you're 
unsure, you can just ask.

Elsewhere on the Internet I moderate a couple of mailing lists, and I 
frequently get questions like these:

    * I'm new to the group, and wondered if it would be ok to ask about X.
    * Have I been talking too much about Y? People seem interested, but
      it's a little off topic.
    * I'm worried that thread Z has gone too long. Am I beating a dead
      horse?
