Only answer never question.

[anotheoldgit]

Why do those ABers who have more than enough to say when it comes to answering a question, never seem to ask a question themselves?

[warpig1]

Guess it depends on who you mean. There are some on here who I don't recall asking questions but give excellent and well thought out answers and advice, this is fine by me. However there are some who dont ask questions but do butt in with various smart alecy comments which helps no one.

[keyvan]

Are you referring to all the questions that are posted here or only those posted under the news section?
Personally I prefer to analyse questions and have as many answers/ opinions as possible to get different perspectives. If there's a high volume of questions they won't get answered properly.

[WaldoMcFroog]

Equally one might ask why do some of those who post questions post such inane ones?

Anyway, have the balls to name names, then they can tell you why that is.

If you are by any chance referring to me, you've obviously missed the almost 100 questions I've posted on AB.

[sp1814]

That's got me thinking...I've just checked and I've posted a pathetic 51 questions since joining 18 moths ago.

...and the vast majority of those have been in 'Music', 'Film & TV' and 'Adverts'.

However, I'm well known for being shallow, so I don't mind.

[arburgirl]

oh god, im renowned for being sarky, i dont know if that coming over on this site yet as im trying to be restrained as im new. but actually (like loads of people) i like the odd sarky comment posted in between the sensible ones.

[crete]

an interesting observation which i have noticed in the past.......

[anotheoldgit]

I should not bander about the word inane too much WaldoMcFroog, because it could equally be used when referring to your ANSWERS???

Surely those who do not post questions in the Main news category know who they are themselves, I do not have to be so discourteous as to name names.

But if you insist, and since I was refering to the main category NEWS, then I guess you are one McFroog Not one question from you in the last 200, I suppose I could go back further, but what the hell? Or is news not your strong subject? Another one of your obvious weaknesses are your failed attempts at trying to pick flies out of other's questions.

Get ready fight fans for the title match tonight. You've seen them in the qualifying stages but tonight anotholdgit and WaldoMcFroog go head to head in what looks to be the fight of the season.

...so please join us at the Brighton Hippodrome, right after this break...

[WaldoMcFroog]

I'm very sorry if my snide response to your snide question has upset you so terribly much. No, hang on, I'm not.

I'm not sure that I quite follow your train of thought in accusing someone of somehow being deficient when it comes to news whilst at the same time the essential characteristic of those you discuss in your 'question' is that that person must necessarily spend a lot of time in the news question.

Perhaps logic isn't *your* strong suit? That's a rhetorical question. naturally. I've snorted at your answers far too many times to know how right I am.

Another reason why I may not particularly ask questions in the news section - though I can assure you I can, have and will do again - is that I don't spend my entire life looking for things to be offended by or kneejerk reactions to have, unlike those - I mean you - who seem to spend their time on here trying desparately trying to win the approval from other posters for their reactionary twaddle. I looked back throught the last 200 questions and virtually all of yours support *that* opinion.

Love you, you old fraud.

clinktink...tink...tink... (sound of pin hitting floor) clac... clac... clac...clac...(sound of my footsteps as i quickly exit thread) in fear of catching a stray bullet from oldgit's recently cleaned, locked and loaded rifle.

[WaldoMcFroog]

Pffff... If the old git has a rifle it's one from a fairground game where you can win novelty gonks if you manage to knock over three cans. It's extremely low powered and it's sights are completely off.

[Doggy2]

I can see the sense of irony in Maxximus's last post on old git's recently cleaned, locked and loaded rifle. But I take your point Waldo he is way off track in some of his threads. Anyways back to the original question, I don't give a monkey how many questions ABers ask in this section as long as they are sensible ones not just based on one having a bad day and decides to have a bash on let's say muslims.

[chitchat]

Coz someone else always beats me to it! I must be a bit slow! That and the fact that I couldnt think of half the great questions that they think of.

[Booldawg]

...because they know everything already...
