One asks a question to get a bunch of generic answers but have you ever considered...?

Question

or thought about asking only one of the members here on Y/A a question just to see what kind of personal reaction or answer you'll get, one to one?

Answer 1

yeah thats a good idea but what if they cant really help you, i mean thats  why a lot of people should answer sure one of them must be someone who really likes to help. IMO if i think i could help someone by answering their question, and im talking about real help, i answer it with some effort especially when its something from my field of interest and know something about it. not only do i get best answer but it makes me happy when i feel useful

oh that was creepy cheesy

Answer 2

Would it be just their generic answer? So just one generic answer instead of many. People give their personal reaction, normally. Sometimes tempered by what other people have written.

Answer 3

Not really.  When I ask a question, I want all the answers I can get.  If you are asking a question one to one, how would you know the the 'one' knows anything about the subject.  There are other sites where you can get personal...Yahoo groups ect

Answer 4

Maybe, want me to ask you one?
