Dorayme,
there is a basic thing which most of you are missing, in my opinion.
If I ask what you think about something, that does not mean that I want to
follow your advice.
Of course I cannot know in advance whether I want to follow it or not
before I have heard what you think on a certain subject.
If I think that I do not like your suggestions I do not follow them. Stop.
