Is there something about being a world record holder that turns people off? (infosec.pub)

I guess some people see it a bit as bragging just from looking at the title. The title gives no information on why it might be an interesting AMA. The complete lack of a post body saying what the record is about, or even interesting info about holding the record, leaves little reason for an AMA.

Even something as simple as "I hold the world record for X" would be more engaging.

I mean, it is a crowd known for its "braggy" nature. It's not unusual to see things like "I am a news anchor, AMA" or "I just beat Ocarina of Time, AMA". I wasn't specific because I thought that if I let the engagement clarify the specifics, there would be more engagement.
