I didn't do it to draw people in, I did it to illustrate the reason for the question.

Its the old "bait and switch". No valid reason. They may suspect that their question is so mundane, so pedestrian, or otherwise unworthy that it would be passed by , otherwise.

It's called a teaser, and it plays upon natural human curiosity. TV shows do it all the time, which is why we have advertisements, trailers, previews etc, ad nauseam.

Curiosity, as the proverb says, killed the cat.

Sometimes the full question doesn't fit coz you can only type a certain number of charecters.

Other times, it IS just to get people to read it...

.... and why not? :-)

and why don't they use the spell checker before submitting "their" questions "there".

Is that "hwat" you want to ask?
