Let's say someone make a topic asking something. There's no posts until someone posts something incorrect and then BOOM a boat load of people then comes into tell the guy who is incorrect how incorrect he is. These boat load of people would have never posted unless the incorrect guy posted first.

No, I think there's an actual label for this. Not specifically the scenario I'm describing but it's more people are willing to correct others in order to tell the truth or inform than give it from a person asking a simple question.

It feels like normal behavior tbh. Why wouldn't it trigger a want in you to put them on game? If you got nothing better to do and it entertains you, go for it.

I like being corrected myself too. Most shit I say I only half believe, so Im waiting to be corrected most the time. Educate me, if you can. It only helps me grow.

I openly admitted to using this technique years ago and was talking about how it is way more likely to get you information lol.

Like I said, I say a lot of stuff I half believe. In that, it's the best information I have atm, but Im shakey on how goid of information it is. No one is gonna address me if I inquire instead of just rattle it off like it's a belief I have.
