I am completely guilty of this because I find it ****ing retarded. You are asking random people to provide advice on a subject matter which is portrayed from a single view point, in a vacuum with no ability to see the scenario from a wider perspective and the environment in which it occurs.
Basically the blind can not lead the blind and more importantly schmucks on a website can not provide you any substantive input on your real life.
Really good point. You can tell them that you don’t have enough info to respond, or ignore the thread.
Sometimes however, we have issues/questions that are not particular to one person. General experiences of other people come in handy.
Why is it that people here on GS prefer to give more advice on sillier topics rather than on the ones where someone truely needs advice.
also, some individuals seem to think that its appropriate to show their ‘wisdom’, by which i mean their too direct and meanful side, at the time when its not justifiable.
i know this thread will attract those individuals… let the comments roll
In perspective, appropriate show of wisdom may not be the case. Overwhelming remarks for someone may just be usual talk for someone else.
Re: In need of advice
ignores thread, and moves on to find some chaskay wala thread
fair enuf i know what ur saying but you will notice some threads on here where ppl need advice and no one bothers to comment but when there is a thread which hasnt got much substance, there are plenty of posts.
and my comment about ppl who post inappropriate comments is not based on what the poster doesnt want to hear but about comments that are made with the sole purpose of trying to infuriate the individual.
i am first to say im happy to listen to all points of views, thats what forums are all about, however, i am also the first to point out that some individuals are spiteful
I agree with you a 100%.
FOR THE RECORD, expressing opinion and disrespecting another person’s preferences/opinion are two ENTIRELY different things. Emphasis: Entirely different.
You can disagree respectfully.
Yup ! totally agree :k:…
I have seen that some people on Life1 are just here to make fun of other people’s statements & problems.
and yes there is difference in expressing your opinion and disrespecting someone’s preference/opinion …your believes being called a CRAP is just an example of that.
