Why do people excessively post questions on hub pages when people clearly are not answering?

Sometimes questions are answered to help give ideas for great hubs. Maybe we really want to know the answer and are hoping the question will prompt an expert to create a hub to answer it. The questions are great sources for very successful articles.

Some people answer the questions, but a lot of the questions are philosophical, and should be asked on a forum post. If people ask a question that can be answered (like this one) people will answer it. As for why people post all these unanswerable questions... I think it helps your hubscore to ask a lot of questions.

They start off by asking one question, but once they realize that no one's answering they shoot off another question, and so on. It's a vicious cycle...

May be its an old technique for building traffic to their hubs! Or they just unaware of "FORUMS". I still don't know the difference b/w 'need help...' topic in forums and this 'questions'.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
