WHERE is the rule to ask something only once?

I can't find any reference to there being a rule/guideline that you can only ask someone something ONCE. Where is this mentioned? Thanks.

If by this you mean asking the same question again, because it was not answered or not satisfactorily answered, then I think it's OK.

I've asked a few questions that never got answered or people used my questions as a "launching platform" to talk about what they want to talk about anyway.

Sometimes questions get unanswered because there is a huge surge in the volume of activity and your question gets "lost in the sauce".

Anyway, when that happens to me, I just ask it again, maybe phrasing the question a little differently to try to solicit the exact information I was looking for.

People still have the choice of not answering if they don’t want to.
