So far i have asked a few questions on this site and instead of getting a response or an answer I have gotten ridicule and thoughtless remarks about character and creed. Did no one take their nice pill today or what?

sometimes people haven't been trained to be polite and other times people use the net to be asses because they know here they can be the opposite of what hey are. They may be using this forum to vent or suffer from low self esteem. Eveyone's not like that sweetie.....keep hope alive!!

Some people are here to entertain themselves. Some people are in it for the points, I guess. (Why else would someone answer "I don't know"?) Maybe one of your questions will get picked as a featured question. Then you will get more thoughtful answers. In the meantime, share your own knowledge and help to enhance the intellectual level of this site!

Well...I am one of those people that can and will criticize a person or the question they ask. Also too, I can answer a question intelligently as well. I use to think that there was no dumb questions, except for the one not asked, but after seeing some of the questions on here I do have to take that back. I have seen a lot of very good questions on here though with very good answers...but on the same token I have seen bad questions that someone shouldn't answer it with a good answer. Then there are the plain down out right jerks that would criticize anything that comes along. You can look at my profile to see what answers I gave to some of the questions...and maybe you'll laugh at them too...one of the questions a person asked was about joining the kkk or a Nazi group...you'll have to read the answer for yourself. I know that there are cruel people out there...and you have to decide what is good and what is not...take what will be helpful and let the rest go ;).

isn't it interesting to see how so many users will leave you a nasty answer? would they be that rude if they knew you in person? i bet not. it's amazing how the computer just allows all of the demons to come out & say & do what they will. \n\nanyway, did you enjoy the pizza i sent over? i sent you extra cheese! hope it was yummy!!!

Awww muffin... I'm sorry if some of the questions MADE YOU THINK... They are hell of a lot better than some of the crap being asked here...  Now what did you ask... Oh wait YOU DIDN'T EVEN ASK ANYTHING!!! So, you complain about people who are looking for answers on answers.yahoo.com and then you DON'T look for an answer???

MIMI where are the politically charged questions that I have come to love?  You really need to throw some more Q's at us that get all of these people irate!  It's kind of boring without your juicy questions!

Because I like to help people, usually. Now it's because I got a top answer and came to the site and thought I'll answer a few before lunch. I feel crap, maybe it'll take my mind off it. This is the last one. I'm having lunch because my answers are getting more sarcastic with every question I read. I'm on about 3,000 and some people are on 30,000 points. I spent hours helping someone with problems because I answered a question on mental health a few days ago. I suppose that is rewarding, to know some one in this world is suffering less and feels someone cares. We live in a world full of greed, violence, evil and perversion. Maybe, helping each other through this medium gives people some hope, some faith and it seems a good idea.

Me too - I get really sick of people criticizing your questions and the way you ask them and then going: "2 POINTS!" I know that my question may be opinion based, but you don't have to answer in really rude tones, before ending it off with: "Thanks for the 2 points!", it's not just annoying but it's a waste of time for both me and you. So why don't save us the stupidity, and don't answer if you haven't got an opinion or a thought. This is not all about making the points...

I have been wondering the same thing. I am appalled at the rudeness, cruel and obnoxious answers. I feel if the answer can't give some constructive answer or be kind, then they should just skip the question. Some of the questions are asked by younger people who truly don't know some very simple things. Also, there are many people from foreign countries who do not have a full command of the English lanquage...just like i don't have full command of their lanquage. I almost stopped posting one day for so many answers I saw were rude and I thought,\nI don't want to be a part of this type of behavior for I found it to be such a "downer" for our human race. I will promise you this, I will never intentionally be obnoxious, rude or cruel on this site or anywhere else for that matter.

I don't know. I know I asked one question which may have sounded dumb to some of you who are so computer literate but I really wanted to know the answer and no one responded. Fortunately, I did find out what to do. I am sorry that your questions haven't always been answered. Maybe we don't know any good answers or the questions are too difficult. I will look for your questions next time.

Someone was asking about White supremicists and I replied "enough already about the White Supremacy" and got a violation.\nIt's Q&A so much for your opinion, apparently it was because i didnt answer the question. Who cares, it was my opinion. And halft the answers to questions on here dodge the question itself..\nIt's Bullshit sometimes

I am not sure why they would not allow that question.  Sometimes I just think it all has to do with the whim of the employee reviewing the questions as they come onto the site.\n\nWhy are people rude?  Because they don't have to give their real identities and say things they probably would never say to total strangers.  I think some people too are just having a bad day; others are chronically negative individuals -- I've run into a few every once and a while and their answers are almost always negative -- or they read something into a question that is just not there (except in their minds) and verbally attack the questioner.\n\nI've found that most of the guys and gals on here though are very sincere and helpful people -- and I guess that is why the site was established in the first place -- and why it is so popular.  Take care.

Yahoo is restructuring the Answers and quite a bit of stuff is screwed up.  Took a week before my photo albums got straightened up.\n\nYes, I had a voilation just today.  It was question, actually written as a question, proper spelling, no profanity, and Yahoo deleted it because they said it was not a question.\n\nYou got me on that one!

I also get violations for answering these types of questions ... they put a "freedom of speech" forum then they decide who or what questions can be asked .... as long as you have a serious question it deserves an answer .... \nThere are some that are just stupid ... so maybe they're having trouble differenciating between serious and lame??

no, prob. we are all human on here ya know...keep the questions coming...i like them and your on my watch list that's how i always know when you ask a new question...I like the description you made of yourself...you should update your 360 page by the way...

While the answer is amusing to some, others may not feel the same way. I have been bashed for giving at least one answer someone didn't appreciate. I have even gone back and deleted a few of my cynical answers because I didn't want to hurt anyone else's feelings. I say give those answers at your own risk, but I think you found an interesting way to still get the funny stuff out there without doing harm.

well, a lot of people post pointless questions on here just to build up points and such. you've just got to sift through the 'look at me' questions, like this one, and find the serious ones and try to give an honest attempt to helping.
