| Feb 1, 2011 at 4:20 | comment | added | Adam Robinson | @Am1rr3zA, @maartinus: Yes, the simpler questions are likely to get quicker responses, but that seems a little obvious: easy question -> fast answer, tough, detailed question -> slow answer. The greater the difficulty, the smaller your pool of people with the skill to answer the question, and not all of those people are willing (or able) to spend a lot of time at the moment the question is posted to answer the more involved questions. | |

| Jan 30, 2011 at 20:46 | comment | added | Am1rr3zA | one other problem is most of people searching for easy question, when some one ask basic question less than 5 minutes it get 5 or more answer but when some one ask technical question largely not bored to read and answer that question. | |
