Why is there no shortage of uncreative questions on GAG?

[shades777]

same tired ass question that get 50+ likes really for no good reason other than vanity

cheating - just break up nutjobs
virgin - all retarded, literally all of them
fbi questions - what did you eat today, where do you live? how tall are you? do you carry cash? what atm fo you regularly go to? where are your keys?

and so many more but someone has to call you looney toons out, and please if you ask these type of questions "block me!"

[CrimsonAngel09]

I don't see how eating and height is considered an FBI question.

As for where you're from, you don't have to give exact location. You can even be a smartass and say the planet Mars, or simply just ignore the question. As for the last few questions I do agree that those are definitely suspicious, but people on here are pretty good about being a smartass or reporting the question.

Yes, I myself don't like sexual questions, about dating, and a lot of the stuff you don't like. But be like me and actually block the topics bothering you the most, which I have done.

Rather than complain, why not contribute to what you want asked instead of relying on other people? You're one unimportant person like me on GAG, honestly no one cares how you feel or care to change this site.

Better yet, you are allowed to leave. That is an option, and you wouldn't be the first person has left. MsPutition asked some great questions that didn't involve sex and whatnot, but unfortunately she left because of how downhill this site has become.

Last but not least I turned off notifications for replies, so I won't see your responses to me. Just warning you so you don't waste your breath writing something I won't see.

[shades777]

whether or not you agree isn't the point but rather awareness.

Please refer to my comments made to this previously asked question.

Why are all these questions that are over a year old keep being featured on live feed?

[shades777]

thats not the same as my question at all. your asking about lack of new questions im talking about no creative questions, we wouldn't get similar answers based off these being two different questions

[EmmaMary]

@shades777

Sincerest apologies... Next time I won't bother wasting my time.

[Daniela1982]

Oh come on, be nice, unlike me.

[EmmaMary]

Thank you so much for the AI BC.

[genericname85]

why are you wasting your life `complaining about a site having uncreative questions instead of doing something better with your time?

[Daniela1982]

Or ask some creative questions yourself.

[shades777]

why are you wasting your life trying to rebuttal my question when Im correct, and I ask good questions. is someone upset they've been called out, hopefully you can be more creative

[Daniela1982]

I wasn't referring to you, but just in general.

[genericname85]

i'm trying to add something positive to someone elses live instead of dragging everyone else down ;)

[shades777]

if thats what you gathered from the question then you did not grasp its benefit, feel free to block me

[genericname85]

like if you don't enjoy it, why are you doing it? is it necessary? does it serve the furthering of your personal development? if no, stop doing it. i know our minds sometimes get caught up in bullshit. not assuming you didn't already know this. just wanted to make draw your attention to it.

[shades777]

your still missing the point entirely

[genericname85]

point being? enlighten me.

[shades777]

there's no great filtering option, i like to ask and answer questions however a great deal of them are simply vanity questions that only serve to feed someones thirst for likes, thats why people ask fbi questions, and the sort, id filter them if I could but they infect all categories,

[shades777]

you find that battling me on my reasoning because you think i lack logic and your the one who's logical but i pose the question that plants a seed, i did what you did already, just ask the question i wanted but its actually more enjoyable to help people with their questions

[genericname85]

i mean there is 2 filtering options. one is the straight up direct search and the other is the "topics". there's religion, politics, education... if you don't like seeing vanity topics, just stay away from "how do i look" or the likes.

[genericname85]

i'm not batteling you. are you batteling me? if so why?

[shades777]

bringing about awareness works too, you can not simply ignore problems and wish they go away

[genericname85]

oh. so you think that you nagging and complaining sprouts the seed of positivity? well if it "ways" a "battle of logic", which from my side at least it is not, then you just shot your own foot man. '

negativity is a very compelling emotion for people to get into. so if you complain about a thing, that will most likely compell people to give a negative response and either attack you and tear you down or echo your negativity. it's very unlikely that people react to this sort of impulse by actually tying to spin this into a positive direction.

again i do not try to condescend. i'm assuming you did not know, cause your behavior lead me to believe that. and i do not think less of anyone not knowing something. cause i certainly don't know everything either.

[genericname85]

yeah but there's positive ways of bringing awareness and negative ways. so like which question do you believe would more likely generate a "positive" response?

A: "hey guys, let's work together at coming up with new creative ways of asking questions to make this site more creative and interesting".

or

B: "man this site is bland, uncreative and boring"?

[genericname85]

at this point you have created a lot of cognitive dissonance about your actions and since i know people are "VERY" likely to just increase hostility towards the person who makes them aware of this and extremely unlikely to actually take a step back to realize that their actions were not congruent with the thing they said they wanted to do, i will now mute this conversation. not block you. cause again. this isn't a fight.

[Daniela1982]

@genericname85 I've read some of your questions. At least you are not asking all these lame questions asked over and over again. Good job!

[shades777]

I like all this assuming going on as if the person asking this particular question hasn't thought it through lol, but at least your aware of it, my job is done

[Daniela1982]

@genericname85 and @shades777 Why don't you two just agree to disagree and kiss and make up.

[Jazzy54]

I guess people are bored. That’s why I don’t ask a question until I think of something unique or interesting.
