Where do I put my question if I don't care how someone chooses to answer it?

Asked by Vunessuh (16727points) May 6th, 2010

I personally really dislike censorship and I feel that if someone gives me an answer that I don’t like, I can simply ignore it, instead of trying to censor anyone I happen to disagree with. I just don’t feel like I have the right to tell someone how to answer any question because in my opinion it discourages individuality. Unless of course it breaks some of the more obvious rules like spamming the site or attacking users.
With that said, if I have a question to ask where I’m looking for some decent, serious answers/opinions/suggestions, but am still open to humor and people letting their personalities shine as they see fit, then where does my question go? Is the general section better or is the social section better? If I put my question in the social section with the more relaxed guidelines, will this discourage seriousness as the strict guidelines discourage silliness?

Or does my question just disappear into oblivion?

Also, are social and meta questions second-hand to all of the general questions because the general questions are featured on the main page and the other ones aren’t?
Would it be better for all of the questions to be mixed in together on the main page and once clicked upon there can be a heading of whether said question is classified as general, social or meta? This way, ALL of the questions are featured on the main page for everyone to see right off the bat, (because after all, they are all equally important) instead of having to click a separate tab to view the others. The reason for my suggestion is because a lot of new users don’t know there are two other pages of questions, just like users didn’t know about the Meta section for a while. I just feel this gives every question the equal opportunity to be seen and heard.
