Question

Help answer this question below.

My "Crazy Thought" questions continue to get flagged and rejected as nonsense. I feel that these are legitimate CONVERSATIONAL questions that allow Answerbaggers to use their imagination and humor to answer in any way they want. Do you agree or not?

    It only takes one person to flag it nonsense Jay.

    If the Mods accept it it is busted.

    There are some people that just so anally retentive they flag questions with LOADS of answers, nonsense, I find that very annoying when the staff accept one persons opinion over the many.

    EDIT 4th January 2008.

    You are quite right Jay "Crazy Thoughts" or "Outside the Bag ", now looks as if it has been attacked by a demented 3 year old that was given a red crayon for Christmas. I have seen many dozen incorrectly Flagged questions as Nonsense and Offensive.. I have written on the Blog I think you and whoever else notices should do the same.

    Jay they are awsome questions. I agree with you, they are great for imagination. It is probably someone who is jealous.

    They should not be flagged after they are crazy thoughts; why do they put up a category then say we can't use it? I enjoy these questions!!!!!!!!

    I can sometimes come up with my best material on EVERYBODY'S "Crazy Thought" questions.

    HELL, I don't really know anything enough to be useful for anything else on here.

    And when I last tried to cut loose me mooring lines from this lovable nut-house I got some very heart-warming and touching requests to bring my mad self back.

    So they gotta be worth sumthin' here!
    Wouldn't you say?

    Well that does not seem very fair. I don't know a lot about how the site works, but I had thought a question would have to be flagged a few times at least. And if it is in the "Crazy Thought" category it would seem anything would be allowed.

    Sheepingly needs no handy men only hugs

    It depends on the question I say. Some are totally lame like "I feel like there's something up my butt, what is it?" or "Why are you doing that?"

    I mean really...and I'll flag those.

    But weird questions like "If you were a 3 headed alien and had to relocate to another planet for 2 hours what would u pick?" That's weird and crazy but not dumb...so I won't flag those.

    Your questions are fun, I can't think of any that I have read that would be considered nonsense. You always post them as questions, I just don't understand how they can be flagged as nonsense.
    Things like this will drive more good ABers away.

    ...Why should nonsense be rejected in 'Crazy Thoughts'? Questions in that category aren't meant to be taken seriously.

    But, I don't think your questions are nonsense. I don't know who keeps down-rating you, but they need a serious dose of humor.

    It's too bad that it's happening to you. You're questions are good and fun and I enjoy answering them. I agree with you 100% but unfortunately there is someone lurking around here who doesn't share the same view and instead of moving on to another question they flag you.

    I like your questions, Jay! They are conversation starters, and they are in "crazy thoughts" for crying out loud! If you can't put nonsense in there, why do we have such a category?

    I hope you can have them reinstated. I'm sorry this has been such a pain in the butt for you, when you're just trying to help us have fun here!

    I have had several of mine rejected as nonsense that I felt had good conversational value and have asked for the questions to be re-reviewed with why I think they are legit and have gotten them re-instated. If you feel that you have been rejected in error or quick judgement go to the question and at the bottom of the page hit the feedback button and plead your case. I love imaginative humorus questions as do many others here so please keep them coming!

    In fact I believe AB will not be a complete experience without the 'Crazy Thought' questions.
    It is a pity some ABers take up the job of moral policing to keep questions of any nature from being seen by the rest of the Abers by way of flagging them.
    To ask a crazy thught question requires rare imagination. All do not come equipped with it.
    Why don't you rephrase and post the same questions without loss of spirit of content so that we the common ABers too get a chance to see them and answer them?
    Will you please give this a thought?

    one persons crazy thought is anothers 'nonsense'. i enjoy asking them myself but there is a risk a member with little imagination or sense of humour will flag it.
    Don't let this stop you. not sure if this stops the question being answered again if flagged? I have crazy thoughts all the time. keep them coming as long as they are not crazier than mine.lol
