Why are my questions not answered on Quora?

Why are my questions not answered on Quora??Hello Sameerah Imam,Your question got merged with a lot of others asking the same, so my response may get lost in the noise. Here it is, FWIW.Your questions are too vague. You need to give us something concrete to respond to. Your questions also have an air of self-pity. That's honest; and honesty is a very valuable attribute. But self-pity is not! Let's look at some of these questions.Why this office work is so boring?- vague, self-pity. Why don't you get some backbone and do something about it? "I sit at this desk pushing paper around, bored out of my mind. Should I quit and travel around like @Kanwal Anuvind? But what will I do for money?" 20 people will tell you to follow your dreams, 20 will tell you to keep your nose to the grindstone, and 1000 will tell you Kanwal has a job, he's no bum, and they resent the implication that he is!!!How do we segment internet users?- @Michael Cole's response is right on the money: "This question leaves so much to ambiguity I literally cannot bring on the sarcasm, it just isn’t working. Are you talking about WiFi? Wired? Enterprise networks? Metro Ethernets? Residential? Really this question begs the question, why do I waste the time?"I am confused about my feelings for someone how do I know that I am in love?- vague, confused, unattractive. How about "Sometimes I can't keep my hands off her, sometimes she bores me to tears. Am I in love or just horny?" That would get answered!What should I do when I am feeling extremely bored in my office and have nothing interesting around me?- 7 answers. See, you provided just enough detail to spark a little interest.What should I do when I’m extra hungry and have nothing to eat around me?- 3 answers. A marginal question. Immediate reaction is, why don't you get off your butt and go get some food? Gives the impression of a lazy, unfocused youth. "I'm chained to my desk and can't stop thinking about a burger and fries! What's a good quick snack for the office?"- You see what I mean. Stop floating with the tide, letting life kick you around. Start kicking back. Or at least, pretend to ... that's all the rest of us are doing.Good luck!

Why won't she answer my question?

Ok so this girl liked two guys.

Me and another guy.

She's known me for 3 years she met him a month ago.

She had stronger feelings for him.

She picked him and they got together.

We talked on the phone a couple min ago mostly about how she felt.

The point is she didn't want to answer my question.

I asked

are all your feelings for me gone?

First she said yes.

Then we stopped talking then a couple min later she texted me saying she didn't like that i asked her that.

So i called her again and asked her

are your feelings for me gone?

She said she didn't want to answer that question because she has a bf and it wouldn't make a difference.

Why doesn't she answer it?

(We used to like eachother in 8th grade it's now 11th and my feelings for her never went away.)

(she knows I still like her)

I would appreciate you if you answer my question or I would appreciate you if you could answer my question (Second cond.) ? Which one is correct?

These sentences are both incorrect. The word you after appreciate is the problem. The best ways to say this would beI would appreciate it if you could answer my question.I would appreciate your answering my question.I would appreciate it if you answered my question.Number 3 would be used if you are somewhat irritated or impatient with the person who is presumably not answering your question right away.What you are appreciating is not the person you are asking, but the act of answering your question, so it’s the pronoun you that creates the problem in both your examples. There are grammar rules that I could go into about my three correct statements but it would take quite a long time to explain the details of each one, and I’m not sure you need that much information.Looking them over, I see that there’s one more comment I need to make. In American English, people using #2 will frequently, and erroneously, say you instead of your, as in I would appreciate you answering my question. That may be where you are getting confused. Just be aware that that sentence isn’t correct, any more than the ones you asked about.

How do I reply to someone who answered my Quora question?

A question was asked about the cabin pressure of the Apollo Command module. The answer was party correct saying that it was pressurised to 5psi. However, the answer was incorrect saying that the cabin had a gas mixture of 60/40 oxygen and nitrogen respectively.Afrer the Apollo 1 fire it was decided as too costly to have a mix of gases in the cabin as this would add extra weight and the cabin walls would have to be strengthened. Thus with a gas mix it would be dangerous to live in a lowered pressure vessel breathing air and would have meant that the astronauts would be required to pre-breath oxygen before the suits were put on before a Moon walk or EVA.After the Apollo 1 fire it was stated that at launch the cabin would be a gas mixture. This was achieved by closing the hatch leaving the cabin filled with air which was trapped inside after the hatch was closed. The astronauts were completely sealed in their suits and were pressurised with pure oxygen. At a certain altitude the cabin was vented to a near vacuum and whilst in orbit the command module was pressurised to 5psi of pure oxygen. In this way astronauts did not hav to pre-breath before an EVA.What NASA also achieved with the new design of the Apollo craft was to make everything in the cabin fire proof and all wiring and switches were doubly insulated to prevent electrical arcing. The pressure suits were also upgradedThanks,Ray

Why did she avoid answering my question?

So she lives a little far away from me now (university) and I visited her for five days in February. While I was there, I asked her if I could visit her in March but she said no because she will be back from visiting her family and she will resent me because she'll be so family oriented and she'll be missing them. She told me that I can visit her in June. She told me that she'll start sending me $50 a week to save up, because we're supposed to go on a trip together. So these past few days, she hasn't been living at home because her parents are away for a week, so she's been living with her friend. She said that she won't be able to talk much at all. She has been putting no time into the relationship, and barely communicating with me. In a message I told her that by the end of March she has to tell me if she really wants me to visit her in June or not. Ten minutes later, se sent me a text message saying, "Hey I'm on my friends phone. I can't talk. Just wanted to say hey. Okay bye lol." I thought that she didn't want me to visit her so on my Skype status I put "Sometimes you just have to learn to move on." An hour later, I got a few messages from her saying, "What do you mean move on?" I then got a missed call from her (she said she wouldn't be able to talk this week) and I ignored it. She then kept trying to check what's up with me, but I kept ignoring her. So why didn't she really answer my question about me visiting her in June? Why didn't she answer my question? Does she care about the relationship? She once told me that she has a lot going on. She's visiting her real immediate family after five years (she lives with her grandparents), and she has been going through a lot recently.
