If someone opened a account today, no questions, no answers - but sent you a friends request - would it be unfair to assume they're a sock?

Not necessarily. A sock puppet is someone who has more than one account for the purpose of levelling up by pointing themselves with the other accounts. I dunno why they would send a friend invite with the other accout but you can always wait a few days and check the activity and decide later.

Not everyone abuses the rating system - with more than one account, they're still a sock

Whats wrong with the alternator?

It just doesn't work. I don't even know that it's the alternator. Could be the battery too. Something in there isn't creating/passing/holding a charge like it should be.

Hey, King, whatever happened with you and Dana?

I emailed her. She emailed back that night. I have emailed a few times since but she has never replied. I might use Thanksgiving to email her (even though I'll be alone for Thanksgiving. Ugh... holidays...) just to see if she'll reply. If she doesn't I might just drop it I guess.
Nice to see you today!!

Who of you here who left Yahoo! would return if the rules there are relaxed, your deleted questions/answers are restore and your closed account is re-opened?

If you're friends with someone and one day when you try talking to them and asking them questions,all they do is give you one word answers,would this hurt your feelings and make you mad?Keep in mind they never acted like this before.

Would it be safe to assume that a user who has a sock puppet account has no life?

Have you ever created a sock puppet account and then had a conversation with it with your usual account on AB? Why would that be a sad situation?

Do you think it's fair to get judged for a question you asked just because someone doesn't understand what you're asking? I have made at least two questions like that and I would rather you ask me to rephrase my question than assume I'm insulting someone.
