    In your opinion, would you say that most questioners are posing questions in order to inspire...

    other people to write hubs (in this sense they would be acting as muses); or is it to try to score "accolades;" or are they genuinely asking questions about things they would like to know? Take a guess and tell what you think the motives of most questioners, here,  are.

    Everyone has different motives : May be they really are in a dilemma, but some could just google for the information they ask here, maybe they just do not know this. Anyways we cannot judge, all we can do is try answering the questions if we can.

    Most are just keeping their hubitivity up, or just copy pasting questions from the net, few of them are genuinely asked while others are stimulating thought and acting like a muse, yet others are getting people to read their hubs, one recent activity I noticed a few are shamelessly begging others to follow them.
    I think this about covers all!! smile

    Accolades/hubtivity and things you need to know. I'm a realist!

    Most questions I find are simply answered themselves within the question themselves. Such as this one, it's pretty obvious that people abuse the question area to try and up their hubtivity or gain accolades and such. Every once in awhile you will come across a thought provoking question though. So I guess it's worth sifting through the BS questions to get to those really good ones that make you think.

    I tend to ask questions that I want to know the answer to--or also ask questions that I have been thinking about for a hub.  I find other people's answers inspire me!
