No such thing. Ask away!

!nostupidquestions is a community dedicated to being helpful and answering each others' questions on various topics.

The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:

Rules (interactive)


Rule 1- All posts must be legitimate questions. All post titles must include a question.

All posts must be legitimate questions, and all post titles must include a question. Questions that are joke or trolling questions, memes, song lyrics as title, etc. are not allowed here. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.



Rule 2- Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.

Your question subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.



Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.



Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.

That's it.



Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.

Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.



Rule 6- Regarding META posts and joke questions.

Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-question posts using the [META] tag on your post title.

On fridays, you are allowed to post meme and troll questions, on the condition that it's in text format only, and conforms with our other rules. These posts MUST include the [NSQ Friday] tag in their title.

If you post a serious question on friday and are looking only for legitimate answers, then please include the [Serious] tag on your post. Irrelevant replies will then be removed by moderators.



Rule 7- You can't intentionally annoy, mock, or harass other members.

If you intentionally annoy, mock, harass, or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.

Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.



Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.



Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.

Let everyone have their own content.



Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Uhm, I left a comment to which you replied "I don't understand and I refuse to even attempt to".

So in your terms you "came" at me, not the other way around.

My answer is a direct answer to the question OP asked. If you find something confusing about it, please, tell me what, so I can help you understand.

Stop the childish bullshit.

please keep these comments coming ๐Ÿ˜‚

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world -2 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

I will, actually.

We're in a forum. OP asked a question. I answered. Then you popped up to gibber inanely about how you don't understand what is being discussed.

Why are you in this post or thread if not for the topic? For... the childish personal bullshit?

Tell me what you don't understand about my answer.

Edit for the purposes of clarification, his comment above this read "I'm not going to keep having a conversation with you... [followed by more childish personal bs]" before he deleted it all and changed it to emojis

Then stop replying?

You are having a conversation, you're just refusing to talk about the topic of the thread you chose to reply to.

Please, do enlighten me on how my comment isn't an answer to OP's question.

I've literally studied the subject since 2007.

I'm on /nostupidquestions, because I have something to contribute to the question.

You don't have anything to contribute, you fail to answer when asked what you think or why you're in the thread, you say you won't be "continuing the conversation", but yet... you have to reply with a comment that purposefully ignores the questions and the topic?

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

You don't think you're being childish by spamming emojis, and not being able to address why you're in the thread?

All you need to do is tell me what you found so confusing about the answer. That is the reason alcohol is legal. But I don't think you'll be able to utter a single word on the subject, unfortunately, although you still won't be able to stop obsessively replying with emojis or some other childish comment.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why do you insist on replying when you can't even write words?

There's nothing confusing about my comment. If you didn't understand something, that's fine, not everyone will. All you need to do is let me know what was so confusing to you.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world -1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

This isn't any less childish than your emoji spam.

If you don't have anything to contribute or talk about, why reply..? Seems... obsessive, to say the least.

Please. Educating people on prohibition is literally what I do. Tell me what was so confusing about my answer.

Have you read the rules of the community, by any chance?

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

What is it you found so confusing about my comment?

You're still "having a conversation", which you said you wouldn't be "continuing" about a dozen comments ago, yet you're still unable to actually have a conversation.

It's very fascinating.

What is it about my comment you found so confusing? It's all perfectly clear and I can back it up with studies, you just need to tell me what you found so hard to understand.

[โ€“] whoreticulture@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

No, I said I wouldn't have a conversation with you. this isn't a conversation lol, this is watching someone have a mental breakdown

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

You are still having a conversation. You're refusing to have a conversation about the topic to which you chose to reply to.

It's a bit like going to a convention on a thing and then starting to taunt people who want to talk about the things the convention is about, while you refuse to acknowledge there even is a convention. Metaphorically, that is.

You literally can't address the topic you choose to keep replying to... so I'm gonna have to agree with your last sentence.

What is it you found so confusing about my comment?

[โ€“] whoreticulture@lemmy.world 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Oh my God! this was the comment! now I feel like having a conversation with you would go anywhere! wow!!

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world -1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Okay, so please, tell me, what did you find so confusing about my reply to OP's question?

[โ€“] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Why are either of you still here? This entire thread is pointless lmao. You're just egging each other on.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

For the same reason you are, because I feel like it. I feel like talking about the question OP asked.

I've not broken the rules. I'm not the one going on about petulant personal things.

The question is, if you and they don't feel like talking about the topic, why are you here?

[โ€“] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Because I read this thread and was curious seeing how far you two would go. Clearly the other user isn't interested in answering any of your questions, so why bother continuing?

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Or because you answered to me on your other account that you spend the last 2 days on, with this account you spend the last week on, because you got ashamed and realised how silly your comment history is looking, because you have to keep evading the actual topic.

So it shows an even more severe obsession. Phew.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

Please, do let me know what you or this other person who is definitely not you, find so confusing about my comment?

[โ€“] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 0 points 7 months ago (1 children)

What...? You're completely off track here. I've been on this platform since the Reddit exodus, you can scroll through my entire post history and find out yourself. I'm not the other user.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world -1 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (1 children)

Ah yes, an obsessive, quick replier changed to another, obsessive, quick replier who can't address the topic and is into petty personal bs, and the first one has been active on Lemmy for the past two days, while you haven't, and the other account has been inactive for the week before those two days, while you haven't. So just as a brotip, if you're gonna try that, do make it a bit less inconspicuous by actually having daily activity on both accounts.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

What is it you find so confusing about my reply to OP's question?

[โ€“] Snowpix@lemmy.ca 1 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Buddy, I'm quick to reply because I'm using Lemmy at this exact moment and get notified of your replies right away. Why on earth is that considered "obsessive?"

You're so off track at this point. I don't have any relation with this other person. Have you considered that more than one person can reply to a comment thread? Did you even think to actually look for more than 5 seconds before making baseless accusations, or did you just decide to double down?

All I was wondering is why you were continually replying to somebody instead of realizing they clearly don't care about what you have to say. You've never learned what "Don't Feed The Trolls" means and it shows. I asked one question and you immediately start making baseless accusations.

Well, I'll let you get back to it then, I have no further interest in talking to either of you. Blocked.

[โ€“] Dasus@lemmy.world 0 points 7 months ago

More childish personal bs, excuses and more "I won't be replying anymore." Your account history speaks louder than your words.

Now please, do as you "threaten" and stop replying, or actually address the topic, since you've "read the thread" (while you participated in it for the past several hours).

Even if it were true that you're not an alt, you'd still have to have an opinion on the actual topic,.

Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

So, what exactly did you find so confusing about my reply to OP's question?
