Is it just me or do people on here respond really rude?

I understand everyone has their opinions, and by submitting a question you are also allowing anyone on the web to answer it. In that case, you are available to be "spanked" verbally.



I also understand that everyone is different and sometimes things just come across in unintended ways when others read what you have to say. It's different perspectives, I get that.



But do some of you out there just get kind of tired of people on here who literally have nothing better to do than just comment on people's sincere questions and calls for advice with rude remarks, insinuations, and assumptions of you are outside of the information you provide? I mean, come on. Really? Why do people find enjoyment in that? I don't know how many times I've come to this place to get advice on something, even simple matters, or to get a question of mine solved, and people will comment telling me I'm a "cold, selfish, unworthy mother", or "idiot", even assuming things about me that have abosolutely NOTHING to do with the question I ask. It's getting pretty ridiculous on here and I think Yahoo! needs to be more aware of the "Top Contributors" and other members that think bashing others is answering to someone's need.



Do you all have that problem at times? Doesn't it get old after a while!? It's kind of frustrating, too, because this doesn't allow you to respond back to accusers or argument instigators, unless it's once you've chosen the Best Answer, and even then you're only given 300 characters to use. That's not NEARLY enough to defend yourself.Is it just me or do people on here respond really rude?
The internet is for porn... and porn is degrading to women... this teaches men to disrespect people with a female avatar... and hence people are rude to you.





Also, the majority of people don't actually want to answer questions... kind of what happens in certain forums I've visited. They consider questions already asked as lame and insist that people learn how to use "search" rather than make their own topic (necroing is still bad though).



In short, people seem naturally inclined to being rude.
It's sad but it is a fact of life that on all networking sites like this it does happen. People who are as timid as mice in real life can get a kick out of being (or pretending to be ) hard on here. If you met them in the street they would not have anything to say. Do not let them upset you, the majority of us are reasonable friendly people. Ignore the idiots and enjoy the siteIs it just me or do people on here respond really rude?
Unfortunately the anonymity of message boards tends to bring out some less than pleasant people and others who seem to enjoy causing problems rather than providing solutions. It's like in school when the teacher asked , are you helping with the solution or are you part of the problem.Try to ignore them, report them if they break community guidelines or TOS. Fortunately the majority of members are sincere, polite and try to help other members.There are also point gamers who answer just to get 2 points the easy way they should be reported

Greetings, I clearly see your point and understand your cry although I am a "Newbie" or "New Kid On The Block". I see and read some ridiculous to outrageous answers to some people's genuine questions/concerns who are here to obtain a reasonable and rational answer/comment. I would remind you to NOT give up and don't let 1 bad apple spoil the bunch instead continue to get rid of the rotten apples by throwing them away or select the "Best Answer" option. P.S. "Great Minds Think Alike but Fools Seldom Differ". Also remember when you come across negativity (-), then counteract it with a positive or a plus (+).Is it just me or do people on here respond really rude?
It happens all the time with me, I expect it ! Try not and let it bother you, they don't know you, and you don't know them! I wouldn't even bother with wanting to defend yourself. Why waste your time ?
Yes, it happens all the time. Most of the users here are teenagers and get their kicks from insulting other people. They're just kids trying to have a little fun and be 'shocking' at the same time. You can use the Report Abuse button in the corner of thier answer and report them or you can just ignore the little cretins.
