You know, I sometimes post that link to "How to ask questions ..." but
here's another observation:  play more face-to-face board games if you want
better support.

Playing a F2F game (Settlers of Catan and its thousands of descendants)
teaches you non-emotional empathy: the ability to view the world from
another person's point of view, encompassing their limited information
(which will be different from yours).

This is at the heart of a central issue in support requests: what
information should be included?  Too little, and potential supporters get
frustrated and tune out.  Too much, and potential supporters get
overwhelmed and tune out.  You need that sweet spot, enough information for
someone to diagnose your problem AND demonstrate that you are taking the
request seriously.

A game player has an advantage here, as they are constantly evaluating the
world from different perspectives, so they are used to thinking in terms of
what they know, what others knows, and what the gap is (as in, "I have the
last trump card, but she doesn't know that yet because her partner followed
suit last turn").

Generally, I just think game players are better people :-).
