What is the best way to convince AB folks to use the terms 'frequently' and 'rarely' instead of 'always' and 'never' when posing questions?

I rarely use never or always, and I frequently am checking to make sure the statement is generalized and not solely conclusive.
-
If you Always lead by example; and Never make proclamations you cannot substantiate...I believe you will Frequently reach your goal; and Rarely feel as though you may have misled or disappointed your audience.

There are ONLY three ways (purposely chosen use of only for ironies sake), 1) Educate them, by politely asking them if they meant frequently or rarely 2) Answer the question with another absolute (i.e. Why do all people say always? - Because all people that say always ask too many questions). 3) Ignore them and hope that our educational systems get better.

You know I am going to get down-rated like crazy for this but at this moment I really don't care because Answer Bag is turning into a joke anyways with all of the cruel and heartless people. Why don't we as answer baggers worry more about what the people are asking? why can't we worry more about giving good answers? If you want to show off that you are a perfectionist in english, find an english game on the net. I am sorry to offend anyone, that is not my intention, My intention is to try to get it across to any of the english perfectionist that some people find answer bag when they desperately need answers, I wish we could lighten up and be a little more nice.
