Have you ever ask a really BAD misunderstood questrion on this site? I asked a question earlier about whether or not there were just some people who shouldn't be allowed to have sex.Just should have never lose their virginty. I was really just commenting on soceity, with the cheating and all the crazy things people do these day. I meant in a TOUGUE AND CHEEK kind of way, but everyone else didn't think so! what they read and what was trying to say was completely different! Needless to say I deleted the question! Has that ever happen to you? ever ask a question that got taken ther wrong way?
I really pissed some folks off!

Yeah, I agree that you really have to weigh your words carefully when you're writing your question. The reason for this, is when you're talking to someone, you use facial expressions and body language and tone of voice that all denote your exact meaning -- whether it's serious or tongue-in-cheek. But when writing, people don't have a clue whether you're being serious, nasty or joking -- unless you explain yourself as you go along. I'm sorry this happened to you, but maybe next time you ask a question, you'll have to qualify your statements and let them know that you're referring to society, or that it's not meant to be serious. I'm aware of this, so I'm pretty careful how I say things. Otherwise, it's easy for people to misconstrue even an innocent statement. Better luck next time!

I've had some very aggressive feedback on here for questions that weren't even slightly bad - it has been evident that the people giving me answers have not read the question at all, and are just jumping on the defensive, defending something that I haven't attempted to offend in the first place. Don't worry about it, you've deleted it now so out of sight, out of mind. People will forget and won't care.

Ok some people just make fun of some of the questions, on Yahoo Answers. I've asked a couple questions on yahoo before, that weren't offensive, and you wouldn't believe the answers I got. Some people are just unfriendly in certain situations.

Well no not me. But you have to go into deeper details to get the point and meaning across or it will be given in a total text or frame of mind for others reading it. After you write something look at it for a while before submitting it.

Yes I GAVE AN ANSWER TO A QUESTION JUST NOW AND YAHOO DID NOT ACCEPT IT. I GUESS THEY FELT THAT MY ANSWER WAS NOT APPROPRIATE. THAT'S OKAY BECAUSE IT WON'T CHANGE MY OPINION ABOUT HOW I FEEL.

you know what I'm proud of you, you want to express your freedom, so go on ahead. Our government has become communist.

No, maybe you need to think more..... or more clearly or with an element of forsight.
