Do you ask questions for actual answers or ask questions just to troll?

I'm not being mean. i'm just asking a very blunt question. because I and many other people that have answered questions from 5 months ago to a year ago still have not been chosen best by asker. most of the answers given are serious. (detailed) Again, i'm just curious

    In my past experience, I've gotten more answers to my "troll" questions than I do to my serious questions.

    So, I ask troll questions.

    The lesson here is, lighten up. If someone really has a serious question, why would they come here? The chances of getting a good answer here are very slim. And, most people can use Google. So.

    Just have fun.

    There are several people in my experience who ask questions but then never choose a best answer; they don't bother to keep up with the question. And this doesn't surprise me at all.

    For some reason, a lot of people don't bother to check their emails, even if they're doing something that involves email. I have the same issue when I'm selling something over Craigslist; a person will reply via email, and I'll respond, but they won't ever reply because they don't ever bother to check their email.
