What would be the reflection on generating many questions? Bad or Good
How much crowd can see the question?
Most of the time your question get pushed away shortly and not many people can see to reply

Having many connections would be beneficial if the question or Blog you post would send automatic notification to notify all your connection so that they would know and they can choose to response or not

Please remember people's definition of quality may be different from yours. And this is everyone's community. When new people join they may not know the best way to get results from this group. These are often the people who go crazy posting questions. The way we respond will help to guide them to learn the best way to use this community.
We all are doing a great and patient job helping the newer people. Let's just keep going.
We do have some technology limitations. We can continue to try to make suggestions to the administration, but in the meantime we will need to continue to find ways around the limitations.
Nice response, Dinah. You are correct. Through our support, guidance, and direction, new members will organically learn how best to elicit feedback from the community.

With all due respect to everyone’s opinion but Dinah brings a very important point: When it comes to posting questions in this community (It is exactly like raising a question in a classroom), there is no standard definition of what a quality question is and this is everyone’s community so everyone has the right to post any question as long as it is within the ethical limits. We are not here to judge people, we are here to help and support people, new practitioners so we should lead by example and encourage a culture of freely sharing opinions, questions and so on. This is what Agile encourages too ... If we starting judging people and their questions, this won’t help grow the community in any way.

When I started here in this community, I used to ask too many questions (When I look at some of them now, I maybe would think:Oh, that was a silly questions) but believe me, I always found support and answers to my questions which encouraged me to ask more and more until I reached to a level where I started helping others and that is how we grow. We should build new generations and lead by example.

For me, every question is a quality question because everyone thinks differently, we all come from different backgrounds, different mentalities so what is important for one might not be important for others. On the other hand, some post questions that are probably for the sake of getting their influence higher and there is nothing wrong with that as long as the question is not abusive. I see many people too that have lots of contributions and all they do is comment: “Thank you for sharing”. This is a personal preference and we need to respect others preferences, again, as long as it is within the limits.
Really well said Rami.

Granted, but I have seen questions that really require a dictionary, not a discussion thread. On the question of quality, the user guidelines is perhaps an indicator of how the site defines quality, and to that end, many questions don't fit the bill. It is not a "one size fit's all" argument, even if quality is an individual perspective. In the case of this forum, there are user guidelines that override individual perspectives on quality, or else anything could be left in, not moderated and/or deleted.

Anish, again, define Unique and define what a quality question means ? There is no set standard for this. Every question is unique in a way like everyone is perfect in their own imperfect way.
Rami,
I don't know how to define quality, but looking at the discussion questions I can see that some questions are getting lots of responses, while some have very less responses. So, I'm assuming that people are looking at questions with adequate context.

Anish, though apparently you see that but it doesn't mean questions with less answers are bad quality they might pushed away quickly and not much people saw them so it's not a accurate measure moreover Rami made it clear quality does not apply on questions and we agreed with him on that
Questions does not categorized as service so you can measure the quality but the answers does so the questions simply open a door to discussions and bring different thoughts

Quality over quantity.

If the purpose for posting the questions is to inspire a thoughtful discussion or the individual has a genuine need, then that's one thing, but otherwise there's a fine line between contributing and spamming.

Kiron,

Excellent way to see it.

Sante, I always appreciate your comments and I do understand that staff keep you awake all night more than my coffee does but as project manager dealing with AI to pick up your resume for interview you have to play the game to beat the system

Vincent, Thanks for your comment however there was a good debate over the "quality" of questions ---- sometime it is easier to go with the flow and if you don't keep sending connection request I guess it is hard to score that high numbers as it is hard to rely on just what you receive requests. Isn't it?
