Everyone gets fed up with those you ask silly or racial questions time and time again (e.g. concerning Saudi Arabia) - but IF NOBODY ANSWERED ANY OF THEIR QUESTIONS THEY WOULD LOSE THEIR AUDIENCE AND GO AWAY! STOP GIVING THEM ATTENTION JUST TO GAIN 2 POINTS!

Sorry - shouldn't have said "silly" - I am talking about the totally racial drivel that has been appearing all night!

Habit and boredom.
It's all been said really. What would be funny is if the people responding to the baiting questions could see the 11 year twerp typing in the question just to get a rise out of them and to have something to do. It's all pointless.

No matter what responses that person recieved, he kept posting. You are right, iggying someone like that is the way to do it. I gave up after answering a very few. By then, I realized he was a nutter, rarely coming up with anything bordering on truth.

I agree - genuine questions & debating points deserve a reasoned response but people who just want to play mind games & to stir things up should be ignored. Many responses just say how anoying the person answering finds the question - if it annoys you - IGNORE IT.

People ask those questions because they need to be asked and its what alot of people think, but due to so called 'free speaking' western countries having to tiptoe around offending people of other countries/races/faiths this forum is one way for people to put views accross. Stop with the peace and love all the time, get real and look what going on around you life.

Just because you may think they are silly questions, don't mean to say everybody else does. Free speach is what the U.K. is all about (or so they tell me). Just lighten up and go with the flow. After all people will probably answer your question ! ! ! ! Well I have anyway. Enough said.

I think of it as a release for my stress and frustration with the day. It provides me with a way to let it all out, without screaming out loud or pounding around the office. You know? Hey, if they want to set themselves up for abusive responses, more power to them. I think it's pretty good humor overall.
