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.

Yes, or rather no. Or maybe. Life's too short. Try to remember that this is not real life.

Never take it personal---Your an expert. Some plp just like to argue a point. You compassion drives you for clarity yet some things are better left behind.

Do I think it's fair? no. Do I think it happens. Yes,all the time. Keep asking. That's what asking is all about-- to get answers; not insulting remarks. Their answers often say more about them than they ever will about you!!!

No, its not fair..thats the thing about not having a face to face conversation with people, there really is no way for people to know the emotion behind the question, so they sometimes interpret them the wrong way. I used to take questions the wrong way, when I first started here, but once I got to know the personalities of the members here, I realize that there's no harm intended..As, I'm sure there was no harm meant by your questions..

Nope. It's not fair. What's an example of one that you've asked like that?
-
I always re read my questions carefully. Many problem questions end with a comment or something that gives away a hoped for response like, "What about---, I think it's stupid, don't you?" or something like that. Provocative thought questions should be ok and if worded carefully may be better received (since it wasn't a one time deal for you). Good luck.
