We all talk about how the community has gone to the shitter, bla bla bla, it's not like vanilla, bla bla bla. My question, to the MMO-Champion community, is simple and straightforward.
Someone asks a question in Trade chat. What do you do?
I will try to add an unbiased poll, but this is my 1st thread ever, so I'll probably make a mess of it. If anyone could help out, it'd be appreciated!
Do you troll them? If yes, is it some innocent playful trolling, or being a downright asshat? Do you answer them to the best of your ability? Do you ignore them? Would you go out of your way to explain to them? If you do decide to answer, do you do it publicly in Trade chat, or in whisper? Obviously this changes on a case-by-case basis, so I'll just add a few assumptions for the sake of simplicity! If you do decide to answer, do you do it publicly in Trade chat, or in whisper?
1) You know the answer to the question, off the top of your head, so YOU don't have to do ANY research, since the question invokes knowledge that you already have.
2) You're not doing something particularly demanding - you're not in the middle of an arena match, say, or doing an interview on Teamspeak, you're just chilling in Org maybe browsing the AH, tidying up your bank, mogging shit etc.
3) You cannot tell if the person asking the question is indeed trolling or genuinely clueless about the topic he's asking about.
Please please please please be honest when answering, in order to get an unbiased poll.
