You’re still the one choosing to be offended (or whatever) by my conciseness and trying to force me to appeal to your preferences in terms of communication and I simply have no interest in participating in those kinds of gymnastics.

There’s no rudeness. There’s nothing unfriendly. That’s your fantasy. It’s in your head.

Some people may feel the same as you, and I’m ok with it. They will quickly learn I mean no harm by it. I’m glad to help. They need to give me all the information to do so. Once that’s happened, we get from Q to A in a shorter amount of time and with less total communication. Less words, fewer messages, reduced time to resolution.

If they’ve given me a concerted effort to frame their question with support, giving me an actual shot of helping them without making it more of a burden to understand what they’re even asking, I’m more likely to engage and be specific on a follow up question. I think you’re forgetting the linked article is talking about absolute half assed attempts for asking for help. Is that not itself rude? Unfriendly?
