Why do so many people on here post a statement instead of a question?

It is understood that you have an opinion about something and want it to be known, but you need to post your opinion as a question, not a statement.

Update:

I'm not posting in the wrong section as I am referring to people who post in this category. I don't know if this happens in other categories. I am assuming it does.

Update 2:

@ Radical: It was just an innocent question as I see statements instead of questions on here all the time and was just wondering why! No need to be a condescending jerkwad!

    This is a forum for asking questions and not sharing opinion. If some one has genuine need to clear any of his doubt or curiosity, he should ask his question. It is not right to post any opinion even in form of question.

    Same reason so many people post in the wrong section.

    Source(s): Normally I don't point this out but if you're gonna do it I'm going to as well.
