NikkiT2,
You wrote, "When you ask fro clarification, you very rarely just post one simple post asking for this."
Now it would take a great endevor to categorize all of the posts, relevant to your conclusion, to determine the accuracy of your statement. There are two types of requests for clarification in question, one being a one-sentance request, and the other the list of choices. I feel that the [list of choices] is a good way to separate possible things in order to facilllitate clarification, not for any other reason, and I feel that the list makes it simpler for one to reply so that clarification could be given.
However I feel that if I ask for clarification, that the one being asked could ask me to clarify my request for clarification if they need assistance to comprehend the request and then we could continue after that was clarified. My goal in asking for clarification is to further the goals of this forum , which is for support and education, and I feel that clarification is a good way to foster this.
