People are simply asking the whole group questions, and their intent is certainly not for anyone's glorification. And you must remember that "no answer is an answer". No need to crush the poor guy to let him know his question was, in any individual's opinion, of no great value. If you absolutely want to humiliate someone, do it in person; at least he has a chance to punch you in the nose hahaha :-) As for me, I see no value in demeaning others and calling them names ( moron, jerk, etc.).
