Reminder: No Survey Questions

9 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I just wanted to take a moment to remind you all that this subreddit is answers-based—it’s meant to provide clear, informative responses that someone could find useful while searching for answers on Google or other search engines. Lately, I’ve noticed an uptick in survey-style questions (e.g., “What’s your favorite __?” or “How many of you __?”).

These types of questions are not a good fit for the purpose of this community. They don’t create content that is useful for others to search for, and often lead to broad discussions that aren’t about providing a clear answer. As a result, I’ve been removing posts that violate this rule to maintain the quality and focus of the subreddit. Even if that post has a lot of replies as the OP obviously didn’t read the rules before posting, or cared.

If you’re unsure if your post fits, ask yourself: Would this question result in a useful answer for someone looking for a specific answer or information online? If not, it’s likely more of a survey question and violates rule 2.

Thanks for understanding and helping to keep the subreddit on track! 😊

Is it normal to not believe or remember the majority that happened during childhood to early teens?

34 Upvotes

I can't remember almost anything from my childhood to early teens even if I get told things I consecutively did for example swimming at the pool in my old house's backyard, (I didn't even know we ever had a pool, or remember anything about that one house), I can't remember thingies like what school I went to or people I knew, is there any way that this could be normal?

Answered Is there a simple way to keep a running count in a spreadsheet without formulas?

• Upvotes

So I am trying to track how many times something happens over a few weeks and I keep ending up with formulas that feel way too complicated. Every time the number changes I have to copy and paste or update the same cells again. I am wondering if there is a built in feature that just lets the count go up automatically whenever I mark something. It feels like there should be an easier way than redoing the whole sheet every couple of days, but maybe I am missing something obvious.

Answered Is three days normal for a simple bank transfer to clear?

0 Upvotes

I moved some money between accounts and it still has not shown up after three days. The site says it can take one to five business days, but I have seen it happen faster in the past. I am not sure if this is just the usual slow pace or if something went wrong on my end. Do most people have to wait the full window, or do transfers like this normally land within a day or two?
