how do i reply to people about my question?

[MandiR]

excuse me i did not know you couldnt reply.

[Flubbety Yu]

you don't

you ask, they answer/ end of contact.
this is an answer site,
not a high school debating society.

You don't directly. YA is not a chat room or Facebook. You have two options:

1. E-mail or IM the user through their profile.

2. Wait until you pick the BA and add comments for each user. Probably only the Best Answer will see it since they only get a notification.

The ONLY exception is that you can add additional details to your question for clarification of the question. Do not call users by name doing this or it will be deemed chat.

People are sitting there watching your question..it doesnt do any good to reply
to them. They post ..then move on.
Its a chatting violation to talk to them.
You can only edit to add details to your question.........
See the About tab > Guidelines> Chatting
This isnt a social site
Its questions..........answers. Thats it

There are 3 ways,to be exact:

-->Email the user(s) you want to respond to(only possible if both you and that user Emailing options are enabled).

-->IM the user(s) you want to respond to(only possible if both of you and that user IM options are enabled).

-->Via"Additional Details.However,this one is risky as it can turn your innocent question(s) into a chat question(s)/forum(s) and have higher chance of getting reported.The chance become much higher if you put sarcastic remark(s) and insult(s) to other user(s).

Take care.
