Is it normal to have a specific person in mind when asking a question?

Hi, guys. My name is... unimportant, really. What I wanted to ask you is this:

When you are asking a question on here, do you specifically look forward to the answers of certain users? I must confess, I sometimes do (depending on the question I'm asking).

    I do kind of, depending on the question.

    Sure, if you think someone in particular can help you with your question or you just enjoy their answers.

      On this one, I didn't have anyone in mind.

      I'd say, it has worked in 35-40% of the cases.

        I'm curious to know whose input you hope to get. Will you tell?

    I used to, but the regular users change every year or so. Twice now I've taken a long hiatus and I don't know anyone here again.

    I used to... Then again, I just remembered looking forward to a user commenting on a recent post of mine.

    I don't write stories too often these days. I use to look forward to many user comments but I was often disappointed. Some people are too predictable.
