Just saying "Hello", and nothing else in a chat room is just as bad as [asking to ask](askingtoask). Just saying "Hello" does two kinda bad things:
* Interrupts the person you're asking.
* The person you're interrupting is likely in the middle of something. A chat client "pings" them, and they go to check (Stopping what they are doing).
* If you just say,"Hello", you've given them no information, and thusly, interrupted them needlessly.

* If you just say,"Hello", you've given them no information, and thusly, interrupted them needlessly.
* It wastes time to resolution for your problem
* If you say,"Hello", you wait 30-60 seconds, for the other person to say "Hi back". Then they spend 30-60 seconds waiting for you to say what it is you need. That's 60 second to 120 seconds to even begin researching the answer.
* If instead, you say,"Hello, I have a problem with my key. Here is the pastebin for it, can you check, please?", instantly that person has all the info to begin answering your question. We saved 60-120 seconds of everyone's time!
