It seems the way a user asks changes from week to week. Its very confusing. Can any one give me tips to ask the best questions? do we get more points for asking better questions? I really want to know, thanks!
1 - First, choose your forum carefully. Don't ask about the best type of flea collar for your pet in a Dell tech support forum. Making sure you're in the right place increases the chances your question will be read and answered.
2 - Be specific about what you want to know. Saying "How do I fix my computer" is far too general. Asking "What should I do when my computer won't read DVDs?" is specific.
3 - Include the details! Tell us what make/model/etc of device you have, and whether its had any past problems, upgrades, etc. Sometimes this is related. If you're not sure whether a particular detail is relevant or not, include it anyway.
There are more, but if you remember these three simple things you should be well on your way to posting good messages and getting good replies.
