Many do just want to see the finished quilt but many of us are very technically oriented about the construction, would like to know the pattern name, the technique used to acheive the beautiful results being posted because we may wish to try doing that quilt ourselves. I am that way just because I am curious and it helps me to learn.
For example, I am a beginning long armer. When I see posts of quilted quilts done by longarm it is very helpful for me to know if they are computer generated to help reassure my budding skill and fragile self esteem that it is not humanly possible to acheive that kind of symmetrical perfection in a quilted motif through hand guiding.
