If you dont like a Question...why?

must you answer with Who Cares? Why not just go onto another question. Why be rude? Its obvious the person who's asking the question cares & would like a reasonable & kind response. Just curious...are you just bored or mad at someone & want to vent?

    I think people just answer like that to gain points. If it helps at all I share your frustration and think that the old saying rings true on here.....if you dont have anything nice (or maybe change that word to constructive) to say dont say anything at all! :)

    I agree! Some people also answer with "Sorry, I don't know". What is the point in answering the question if they do not have an opinion or the answer?

    I am guessing that they are bored, a smart ****, or actually trying to get points to move onto the next level.

    There are questions that shouldn't be asked, either because the answers are so obvious it is painful, or because they are clearly meant just to insult a portion of those present.

    These are answered often in a less than sympathetic way. It is a reaction to something not acceptable to certain individuals...

    u dont like the question when the person asking seems ignorant or just plain stupid, or you dont like it because the answerer is ignorant or stupid, but some people just want to answer for 2 points... that dont mean anything but do what theyll supposed to do... and then go to the next question....people tend to forget that reporting abuse means a loss of 10 points... still points doing what theyll supposed to do

    yeb,i've noticed that and it bothers me too , some just want the two points and they don't care they will be reported or hurt some one ,U CAN SAY IN BRIEF less manners, and bad behavoiurs.

    i just wish they stop it one day, and to know that they take 2 points and hurt some ppl's feelings in return.

    People just don't care. All they want are the two points. It's just plain rude and unnecessary.

    some people just want two easy points and don't care to answer properly.

    yes, some have issues and they find it relieving letting all of us know about it.

    probably all of the reasons you gave, and then some. Such as miserable and just plain mean and ignorant. God bless

    i agree, those people upset me cuz most people are here for advice or help and people who answer like that are just trying to get the points.
