Is it greed, loneliness or stupidity?

February 4, 2007 2:50pm CST
I bet I'm not the only one that opens a thread or poses a question and gets fed up with reading threads along the lines of "I don't know" or "I'm not interested in this". Why bother adding to the debate. Is it greed, loneliness or just plain stupidity. My money is on the first option, how about you?

i honestly just dont really like to read but i try to make an effort to read as much of the posts as i can untill my brain gives out or i just plain pass out lol. for some people it may be greed because there just posting here for the money which is a very stupid thing to do. you could go and mow like 10 lawnd and earn so much more money in way less time that it takes to earn money here. i think stupidity plays into this one to lol. but then again your going to have to be interested in the descussions here in order to earn any money at all so maybe the greed factor plays into intelligence as well. i guess it all depends on the person at the keyboard ^-^

People who do this are clearly lazy. They hae een told that the more they post, the ore money they will make, so they make those one liners thinking they are saving time t get more money faster. I always give them a negative also, and report them if they keep doing it.

I'd say greed and stupidity. My response to people who do this is to give them a negative rating. If they do it repeatedly, then I report them.

Oh I definitely feel that the poster wanted to post just to get the credit for it. If I open something up and after reading it am not interested, then I don't post. It's as simple as that.

LOL I'm with you on this one. I've started some discussions targetted at certain people which is made clear from the heading and the post itself and yet people leave responses such as "this doesn't apply to me". Erm why are they responding then? GRRRRRRR! If it's greed then it's not worth it as it won't get them a positive rating (or will it?), if it's loneliness then I feel somewhat sorry for them and if it's stupidity then, erm, I can't comment! x
