When someone answers one of your questions, do you prefer a factual answer or one based on personal experience?

Factual answer, because it’s more trustworthy and straightforward.

Thx :-)

It depends on what the question is. Some ask questions about personal experience while others ask questions wanting factual information. If i’m asking how to get over a death for example i’m not going to want some factual answer I want personal experience. But if i’m asking about the history of some country i’m going to want factual information rather then personal experience.

I usually try and give both but I don’t usually ask personal questions and if I do, well let’s just say everyone’s had their share of what I’ve gone through :)

Both, its always good to know the two sides of a story :)

Uhm well I would rather the question be both factual and personal. If I want purely factual information, I would google it. And I don’t want personal information without any sort of backing to it.

I’d want both, personally. Facts are important, but hearing a little bit from someone who’s been in a certain situation and how they’ve got through it can be very helpful as well.

I like when a person answers with both. Simply factual can only go so far without personal experience.

they both will make good sense depending on person…facts or opinions they both are personal preferences. personal? they are gonna say what 1st came to dome regardless.

i prefer personal experience as do many others. when i answer questions i give a little bit of my personal eperiences. i also give personal things in my descriptions. its who i am.
