Would You Rather......?

[construct1245]

Would you rather only ask questions or only answer questions

[maggiebee]

Either as appropriate.

[Bobbisox1]

Both, it's better to partake as it's a Qs site, not just an Answer site 

[naomi24]

Either but questions are more important because without questions there would he no answers.

[William51]

 I like doing both. I would like to ask more questions but cannot think of any.

[Hazlinny]

30% Ask Questions, 70% Answer Questions.

[Canary42]

Asking can be rewarding, but answering's much more fun 😊

[david small]

50/50.

[naomi24]

William, the internet is full of ideas.  Have a meander.

[Countrylover]

To be honest, I don't post many questions because I'd rather just Google.  So I prefer answering.

[naomi24]

Most of the questions I post are just to get other people's opinions on something topical and to generate conversation.  If I'm looking for a specific answer, like Lottie I generally Google it myself.

[Canary42]

I agree, Googling is often better, but what gives Ab its strength IMHO is personal experience of folk with whom you have some familiarity re their likely integrity. Far more valuable than anonymous review sites.

[William51]

 Thanks Naomi. The internet is huge.

[naomi24]

It certainly is, William.  A whole world out there.  :o)

[pastafreak]

I prefer answering. As for asking...usually just for personal experience or how-to advice. Random, just for fun queries are just that. You might get 63 answers...or not a one.

[Lie-in King]

I'd rather answer, especially in Crosswords, although that's been on the wane for ages now.

I've asked a fair few Q's here & had good, friendly responses,  which is where we can differ from simply Googling.  Or Binging - I wonder if they ever considered that derivation? 🤭

[elliemay1]

I prefer Answering, especially in Crosswords and Quizzes & Puzzles

[jno]

approaching 100 questions and 100,000 answers.

Though I wonder how many of my answers were actually answers rather than just comments. The same for other people.

[Peter Pedant]

Googling has its drawbacks for an answer. fr'instance - covid suppose you get an anti-vaxxer pontificating

and here is Dr Palat in 1997, saying you should be careful about believing everything on the internet

Journals and the Internet. Medical journals will continue to be important in prioritising important data.

I don't know how  to do links so I tend to stick to answering.

Your name is construct1245 - you wouldn't like to have a look at the question I've put on History would you?

[Countrylover]

Google can guide you to the good sites.  I don't look at forums, etc. PP.
