It bothers only the one who has provieded the "correct" answer. Should we view it as a matter of self-pride rather than academic incorrectness?


I am afraid that, for me at least, it is more of a matter of hurt pride.

I really don't care if the asker chose the wrong one, he/she will sooner or later learn the lesson in the hard way. Just a bit humiliating that some stupid answer goes beyond mine (and I am talking about no-brainer rather than situations where there can be multiple options which are equally right).


I joined proz.com a couple of weeks ago and I am feeling the same frutstration some times. In one case, the other colleague who proposed an answer for the same question, suggested that mine was the term used in the industry, but the asker selected his.

The only satisfaction I can find is to filter that asker so that I will never waste time again with him.
