    On Answerbag, we allow our members to flag questions as either "conversational" or "educational". We do this to allow people to see only the types of questions they're really interested in. If you're here to chat or meet people, the "conversational" questions are for you, but if you're here to learn something specific or learn about a topic, the "educational" questions are the way to go. We will be adding filters for questions to the site gradually where we see the need.

    We would rather not put specific definitions on "educational" and "conversational" because everyone has their own concept of what these words mean. Because there are no hard rules to say if a question is education or conversational, we're leaving it up you guys to decide!

    • Good addition to the site. It's nice that you have a fantastic website but still manage to make it better and add things without messing it up.

    • Joel, your question got more points than your answer. That seems like a conundrum to me.

    • What if you have an educational conversation? Those are my favourite type of conversations!

    • recently i forgot to leave the door unlocked for my cleaning girl to get in the morning .she comes early and one day i forgot to leave the door unlocked. after ringing and pounding on the door she told me the thought perhaps i was sick or even dead. about to go down to the building manager for help i woke up and let her in. she was very upset and told me the next time it happened she would give me a spanking. since that time the thought of having her spank me turns me on and i wonder if i should try it. any suggestions?

    • I don't think this is nessesary. You can tell simply by the text of the question if it's conversational or educational.
