Do you think it is ok to give advice on SW when people ask questions?

Sometimes people say thanks and it was good advice and sometimes people say who do you think you are giving advice? I mean no offence but surely if people ask questions then the point of SW is to give your opinion and it can be discarded or taken on board? I just wonder if maybe you re not really meant to say anything serious here?

It's why I walk on eggshells when it comes to advice. Silly, I know.

hi goagainsttheflow
I am old enough to not to care so much maybe. I also think if I have something I think I can contribute to a genuine question then why not offer it?
Best wishes
