If this is a QUESTION & ANSWER SITE - how come some people judge the questions and don't answer them?

Question

"That's a dumb question" hardly ANSWERS the question. This SITE is called ANSWERS.

"There are NO STUPID QUESTIONS - only STUPID PEOPLE."

I guess this one is not making it up on the boards today. OOOOoooo...such a controversial question!

Answer 1

They do not like what you said with the question and since they cannot delete it, they demean it as though that makes the question less. By trying to bring you down, they feel they are elevating themselves, which is totally ignorant.

For instance the insipid answer;
Some ask questions so profoundly ridiculous that they don't deserve an answer.

If that is how this person feels, just move on, his contribution to the debate is less than zero. Hey bozo, if you don't like the question don't answer, but if you are, at least give an answer for crying out loud. And although I fell into "their" trap by demeaning that answer, I still think I am right, so there.

BTW, I like all of your questions.

Answer 2

some questions are simply put on here to antagonize or offend. Some will ask the same question multiple times a day like "Do you think bush should be impeached?" or "Is Hillary a communist?"

These jerks contribute nothing. So, you may see me give some pretty insulting answers to some of these...and generally they deserve it. But not often. I tend to ignore most of the stupid questions now and the people that ask them.

Answer 3

formally gay???? as though it have been incorrect to be "formally gay" gay everybody is for the main section smarter because of the fact they're open-minded in assessment to many different zombie-like human beings i be conscious of in any case, going back on your question i think of everybody is merely anticipating genuine questions particularly in the toddlers section, to illustrate there became a query published some female who claimed to be pregnant via a ghost, and her question became ought to I declare newborn help. So an indignant responder reported,"why do you ought to ask stupid questions and top off the being pregnant sections with it, some human beings take being pregnant matters fantastically extreme In end, do not ask stupid questions

Answer 4

This IS supposed to be a question and answer site, where one seeks (or seeks to impart) knowledge. We all judge questions. I tend to deem most of them unworthy of or uninterested in an intelligent response and pass them over. Some, however, seek to take any chance they get to belittle and demean others.

There are far too many people who use this site for amusement, vindication or validation to make it a worthwhile use of time anymore.

Answer 5

Check out R&S the anti-christians constantly mock & report questions (prayer questions are a favorite).

Answer 6

some people judge the questions rather than answer them because someone else has already made the same point.

I don't see the point in just posting a reply of, "I agree with so-and-so" just in order to get 2 points.

Answer 7

I've noticed that with you they seem to jump in with a preconceived notion of who you are, and they fill this need to jump in and insult you rather than answer the question.

I'm learning to pass on questions where I feel a need to chastise rather than answer the question.

Answer 8

some people are rude... but a few questions have been a bit on the unintellegent side. I'm not saying this because I disagree, but because they were immature.

Answer 9

Considering most of your answers come
from Republicans I guess your quote is true...

There are NO STUPID QUESTIONS -
only STUPID PEOPLE."

Spoken like a true Republican!

Answer 10

Because they're merely here to irritate one side or the other and have nothing of value to input.

BTW, this JUST popped up on the bottom of the page. I'll star it and perhaps others will see it.
