It only doesn't pay if jewels are the only thing you care about. Remember that you're still earning aurum for posting, and of course there's value in just having a good time and talking to people.

The main reason we didn't make it easier to earn jewels by posting is because we wanted people to use the battle system -- the battle system is more interesting and more playable when there are more people participating. If people feel that battling isn't a good use of time because there are better ways of getting what they want, that makes battling less fun for others, which causes them to have less interest in battling. It's a spiral.
