Personal Problems

With the people that this community encompasses, I notice a trend that only certain people receive legitimate responses and advice when posting personal problems, so I'm curious to how this discussion will go;

How do you feel about people who post their problems {That we can not conceivably help with} in a public setting?

______________

Personally, I aim to help everyone, but if it's an issue I can not help with and more of a "story" problem, I honestly just feel as if that person is attention seeking and taking from those we should be sympathizing with, this is not to say any problem is too small to be significant, but such anecdotes should be discussed with those close to you.

A worry of mine is always that a response given here will be taken to heart and we indirectly worsen an issue.

Personally, if people want to post their problems then go for it.

If they are going to take something to heart over the internet from someone just joking around or being a troll then they shouldn't be posting their problems in the first place.

However I can see that people might actually need help.... And if so, an internet forum probably isn't the best place to start.

most people just /csb, tl;dr or post a really stupid and generic response, ecspecially in general. Personally i think it's great and if people need help they should feel as though they can post it here, but obviously it's not that way here...

mostly i dont care.
sometimes i do

Most people troll about their problems, so I wouldn't be surprised if such threads are then full of troll replies too /
