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. This includes using AI responses and summaries.

This race obsession of yours is so strange. This is like the 4th account from you that I'm blocking now.

Maybe because of the Atlantic Ocean.

sub name: "nostupidquestions"

comments: "what a stupid question"

Look I don't even know what the OP is talking about but isn't asking dumb stuff the point of the community?

Besides even if it is not serious, wasting money and time for that just to enterna community is not worth it.

but minimum account age would be fine. has like an hour of account age

There's a difference between a stupid question and an obvious ragebait question.

[–] Untamed_Star@piefed.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 hours ago

I mean I would just be confused if someone asked this but I can see how it could be ragebait.

I still believe it would be better to not engage tho.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 3 points 5 hours ago

There's no stupid questions, then there's beyond stupid.

I know it's ridiculous to say it but I'm getting strong sock puppet account vibes.

[–] theywilleatthestars@lemmy.world 2 points 4 hours ago

Please touch grass.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 4 points 6 hours ago

They don't?

Is there a study of this that I missed?

[–] imeansurewhynot@sh.itjust.works 3 points 6 hours ago

they do, so your circumstances are probably particular.

[–] YoFrodo@lemmy.world 2 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

Confirmation bias?

Also are you saying that in your area you see a lot of literal people from Africa avoiding African-American men? Or are you saying that you see black women dating non-black men?

[–] ttgfgg666@piefed.world -1 points 6 hours ago (1 children)

No, I'm saying I see more black men from Africa date black women from the USA more.

[–] fyzzlefry@retrolemmy.com 2 points 4 hours ago (1 children)

I doubt you've ever talked with a black person.

[–] Steve@startrek.website 1 points 1 hour ago

Bro doesn’t need talking for Africa-dar to get a lock.
