Yes

How do I post to a forum?

Click either "Ask a Question" (to ask / post a question) or "Start a Discussion" (to report / post news, tell a story, etc.)

The site developers thought of everything.

To me you ask a question when you have NO idea but seek an answer. But start a discussion when you have an opinion and wish to share it.
