How long did you wait before asking your first question?

The first thing I did was ask. No need to worry, we’ll either like it or not and go to another. You can’t please everyone.

I was very worried about it—both because it would be my first impression on the site in a way and because, having just come from another question site, I knew that people aren’t always nice about silly opening questions.

I searched to see if my question had been asked before. I didn’t think it had, so I asked. And immediately someone posted that it had been asked several times before. The search Fluther option is a bit picky and how I’d phrased my search didn’t show anything up. I wanted to smack my head on my desk.

But it didn’t seem to really bother anyone, and I’ve seen the same question a few more times since then, so that must mean it’s a good one!

By the way, welcome to fluther!

About 5 days.

Oh! Right. I think it was the same day that I joined.

It was about a week or so…I was trying to figure out what questions have been bothering me lately that were worth asking. I probably wasted too much time thinking about my question.

I didn’t wait at all. I just jumped right on in.

I started questioning and answering as soon as I started reviewing the site. I was on a special chat room initially, so I’m not sure if I started questioning as soon as I joined. I suppose I could research it.

Nope. I asked a question the first day I joined. As I recall, the mods told me it was not explained well enough, so I rewrote it, but have not had a complaint since.

i waited until i had a semi intelligent question to ask?

I jumped right in and asked a question.
Then I commenced to blather on in my thread.
I really need to lengthen my thought-to-mouth time.

My first question ever asked was ‘What is it that people hate about Wal-mart?’ It was surprisingly somewhat popular. Don’t worry, just ask a question when you have something to ask. I had a really good question this morning but forgot

I asked a couple of technical questions right away, but have yet to ask anything meaningfull. I have a few I’d like to ask, and I’m sure I will at some point…It’s much less intimidating to chime in and answer than to put myself out there and ask for some reason.

It is definitely less intimidating to answer.

I looked around a little and took a few cues from shockvalue, who is my friend in real life, and asked almost right away, then spent a lot of time answering away.

First day I asked, like, three…

I think I read and answered for a day before I asked a question.
