Do you answer a question if someone else is quoted or it's a reply to/for someone?

I usually answer unless it’s specifically asking for someone’s opinion and not a fact

Like if someone was like, what love based fields can I put in my stack @SoulStar33 ?

I would offer some ideas, even if they wanted to know what love fields you specifically would put in your stack

;)

it was as old as the finest wine but nobody done that since ages. Nobody could ever imagine the consequences which are written in the oldest testament. The oldest and most hard of them all. The true book that said what afterlife looks like.

Even the devil didn’t dare to do that he was always waited for the answer to be spoken just so he can then write his own.

The penalty now can not be taken back

what happened happened. Goodbye my friend good luck with life, you will need it.

This was an unexpectedly fun and thoughtful thread :slightly_smiling_face:

Fond of the answers shared.

From a more macro perspective, I think it may depend on what kind of experience you imagine is being created in answering a question. Experience for the person answering and the recipient.

Like what has been mentioned:
E.g. being helpful/valuable by sharing information or an opinion; being socially agreeable through etiquette, politeness; expressing a quality or characteristic.

So in a sense, having an awareness of what you’re choosing to create through verbal/energetic expression, and how you’re meeting another person’s sphere of experience, in creating a shared experience.
In short though, love and positive intentions go a long way :green_heart::star2:

Of course NOT, why should I?
I don’t owe anything anyone here, nor vica versa

This is just a forum, and all are just avatars whom I will never see in my life nor it will be meaningful for me
Why should I then care?

Simple as that

Yep, a valuable/good shared experience would be optimal, although sometimes it happens effortlessly and I think that (again) it depends, sometimes, it’s worth all your effort to answer, other times, your answer is not appreciated or understood, so, as conclusion, I think that all ways and posibilities are alright, depending on circumstances…

Valid as well, but I didn’t understood your answer, at least not this part

Does it mean that you don’t answer (by “Of course NOT”), unless it’s for you Or that you Do NOT care and answer regardless (?) - I’m sorry, I just don’t get that part. :sweat_smile:

Always be helpful, if you can :sauropod:
Anyways, it’s a forum… and the posts are public. Isn’t that the whole point? :panda_face:

Yes, the overall point of this forum is to help us/others/each other.

I’d rather not answer a question when someone else is tagged and supposed to answer it. Especially if that person is an old member of the forum and their questions are related to the content which only the creator can answer them. I may answer a question if I see a questioner has not received any answers from the tagged person.

I think people have different attitudes when it comes to the term “public”. When someone asks a question in public, it will become a record for future searches. Asking a question in public when another person is tagged, doesn’t necessarily mean that questioner needs the other people’s advice.

Generally, when we talk about help, we should see what kind of help that person needs, then we offer relevant answers. Any irrelevant answers are like bothering the other party.

Also there are etiquettes for tagging others in the posts on different platforms. Plus, there are etiquettes about how to help others as well as how to accept help.

But you know, people with different cultures, ages, etc. react differently, especially on the internet.

Yes, I suppose so.
I think there is no wrong answer, after reading your reply and all the other answers.
Thank You.
