rude answers on QL

Dear all,

I spend atleast an hour everyday on QL and whenever possible i try to answer questions posted by fellow QL members (ie. if i know that my answer is atleast partly correct)

I have raised a few questions in the past few weeks as well and have received satisfactory answers from QL members, although, some answers were very sarcastic to the point of being rude.

There are people who really need some quick answers and their grasp of the english language may not be up to the mark, its not fair to respond by giving negatice comments or being rude.
If one doesnt know the answer, then he or she should keep shut instead of being sarcastic.

The MOD in this case should take immediate action.

For example, just go to a question which has been asked and check the answers given by QL members, some answers are very genuine and is of assistance, some answers are very rude and are given just as 'killing time" which really aint fair..

Think about it folks! You never know, when you would be needing assistance/answers 'what goes around always comes around!

From what I noticed being sarcastic and being nonsense makes the forum site like this alive and active. Just ignore what you don't want to read. They are just releasing their stress from stressful work. Let's just have some fun.

Anyway, have you tried being stucked on the road last Dec2 and have you... blah blah blah (just starting to be nonsense)

Yep, in addition search for 'Coterie' would have also returned following too:

1. a group of people who associate closely.

2. an exclusive group; clique.

"a group of prairie dogs occupying a communal burrow"

you are truly correct, there are few people who like to have fun of some serious questions. A time will be there for them to realize.. I really, some times feel disgusted of morons who criticize nationality, accent, language etc.,

There's no such thing as "non-senciability" my friend. Perhaps you meant "Irrational", Unintelligent".

I understand your point that this is a Social Network site. However, i'm hoping that Qatarliving's goal is to appeal to the masses and to grow its user-base while coming across as a legitimate informational resource.

The moderators allow the new users to become alienated by allowing other members to talk to them in a condescending way. In other words, NOT moderating. As a result, potential members and new members alike will think twice about joining the QL community.

Even if a question sounds "dumb", it does not deserve a condescending answer. The funny thing is that some of the people being rude, lack a good command of the english language, so their feeble attempts at being witty or funny makes them come across as plain dumb.

My suggestion is take the good one and ignore the bad one.

TWO THINGS

1.Its a social network not an educational or Govt information department every one has the right to answer in his own way whether sencible or nonsense

2. Did you ever notice the non-senciability of the questions

happygolucky your coterie was just kicked out of QL. Stop drawing attention to yourself.

By happygolucky• 8 Dec 2010 13:07

You appear from nowhere and expect some sympathy and to be heard specially when your profile is all so wrong .... "Indian & Male"...lol... there are very stringent rules of behaviour on QL... first get to know, make a coterie of yours and then even you say any rubbish, you will get all support and accolades...hope you got the drift...

Cheers.

From QL Guidelines:

"Finally, think before you post! You are responsible for what you post so before you hit enter, ask yourself if this is something you would say to someone in real life."

You'll find some of the rude answers are to really dumb questions from people who fail to think before posting.
