Q/A ,...would you rather a person give you...?

Question

...an informative yet cold and impersonal answer to your question or would you prefer someone to give a less informative answer that is thoughtful and maybe insghtful?Why?

Answer 1

I would prefer someone give me a less informative answer that is thoughtful.

To me if I ask a question I would like a strate forward answer.

If I ask. How to make mix paint to make different colors? I just want the answer not the WHOLE history of paint & painting.

Answer 2

Well... my dear

Why would anyone even give an..."cold, impersonal" answer in the first place ??? I really do not believe in being "cold" -or- "rude", because people here wish to get a serious, thoughtful & concerned answer, right? Right!!! At least, I am dedicated towards the people seeking for help, insight...-or- assistance in some kind of way, so why not respect that individual ???

But....I know, what you mean....There are "a few" harsh & mean people, who even "make fun" of the individual, which I find...."not amusing" (as the "Queen" would put it)...-smile- I feel...Life is too short to be mean to each other...The "world" out here is "hard" enough, so we should treat each other with respect & concern !!!

I wish you all the best for the future ! Greetings from Germany with all my love & care....Annette***

Answer 3

I would rather want a less informative answer that is thoughtful and insightful.  Why?  Well, it doesn't take much to write a long answer that means nothing.  Like teachers always say, "It's better quality than quantity."

Hope it helped!

Answer 4

That depends on the question, doesn't it?  "Just the facts" is more practical if you all you need is information.  If you want insight you have to phrase the question so that it isn't easy to answer in any other way.
