It goes hand in hand

I'd like to offer a disclaimer straight away. This disclaimer is more of a request and not a statement. Please do me the favor of reading through what I say thoroughly. I will try to present it in the most concise manner I can. I do not mind questions if you are not quite sure what I mean. I often have to ask a question for clarification reasons, and thus do not mind doing the same for others. With the above being said, this discussion is in reference to something that happened to me earlier today. Earlier on this website, to be more specific. I wrote a post (and the subject matter is not relevant) and tagged it accordingly. I made sure my tags were clear and at the end of the discussion I even stated that my "discussion" was based off of something else. I realize (and am happy) that we have a plethora of different nations that represent mylot. Especially at the time of night I choose to post. There are many people from nations with English being their second (or perhaps third) language. I can appreciate that sometimes my writing style can be confusing for non native English speakers. With that being said, the following comment is not addressed (wholeheartedly) to those people. However, I would appreciate if everyone read what I had to say and took it under consideration. Please, no matter where you are in the world, no matter your level of English, read a discussion thoroughly. The discussion I posted previously was written as clearly as I could make it, and tagged the same. I felt, however, that instead of reading what I had to say, those who responded just responded based on what the previous person had stated. So I had three responses that were the same, and none of them in any way relevant to what I had posted within the discussion. This somewhat bothered me. I realize that half the people here use this site as a means to earn money (I'd be a hypocrite if I said I didn't do the same), however that should not in any subtract from adding value to the site. What I mean is, just because you use the site to earn money, doesn't mean you shouldn't read what was written by others and respond accordingly. You should not respond just for the sake of responding. Atleast not on my discussions, where I often try to strike up conversations, or add more value to what has already been said. I do the same with others discussions. Does any of this make sense? Can you appreciate what I am trying to say?
