The mantra from IRC and all over the internet for decades!
Don't ask to ask, just ask. If its the wrong place, you'll be told.
I worked in a place with an internal chat program. Some people would just say "hello", waiting for you to respond before they ask their question.
Of course you're not going to respond to that until you know what they want. So you just don't respond cuz there's nothing to say. Oh the fun we had.
I'm now an official expert in " waiting for people to send the second message after hello "
