In the group I play with, something I have noticed and pointed out a few times is that the player's are always saying things like "What if I put my sword on the altar?" Then everyone sits in silence. As a referee, I always have to say, "Are you waiting for me to respond? I can not tell you what will happen unless you put the sword on the altar."

So I point out. If you are asking questions of the group, you might need to prod them for answers. If you are asking questions of the referee, the question should be more actionable. I can not just give away information your character could not possibly know.
