Aggressiveness is less of an issue. Getting good signal (relative to 
ad-hominem noise) is important.

Twenty years ago, Usenet with a good reader got big/thick signal, 
especially on the tech lists.

However since then, projects have become numerous and varied, as have 
sources of information (email lists, web-based discussions, etc). Finding 
good, clear, authoritative, and consistent "signal" is difficult, 
especially when you find yourself in a jam.

And Usenet is effectively gone.
