This is about the low probability of getting people to see or read your question, resulting to low probability of getting the answers you need.

See if you can find some interesting question other's can answer.\n\nAlso ask questions like this, so that some one out here might answer. Like me.

I can understand...from what I have seen on this site, there are more people asking questions trying to get attention or be "cute" than that really need help. (Not saying this about you...just in general). Same goes for people answering the questions...Can't tell you how many "I don't know"s I have read on here as answers. Immatuirty sums it up in a word.

Not typing their answers clearly and making sure their question is actually READABLE, and understandable.\nI have skipped MANY question, simply because it's not clear what the questionis even about!\nIf they just took the time to think about and read their questions before they post them, to make sure others will understand it, I'm sure there'd be a LOT more replies.

Most of this is Entertainment for Some.  \n\nYou get a few good answers, a lot of crappy ones.\nI know it's annoying!, but what can you expect???

It's true, it is nicer to see who is answering the questions.  However, this is NOT a chat room -- and, therefore, whatever information is given shouldn't really matter who gives it, whether or not you can see what they look like.

Come people may feel it is not necessary to read it.  They might only want to give smart a## answers and get the points.  \n\nOthers might think they know everything and want to answer right away.  \n\nWhat I do if I see a question I know I can answer or look up is like this:\nI will try to be the first to comment by only typing on letter or symbol then doing my research.  Then I come back and type it all in.  This was my answer is the first to be read as it is now. \n\nI do my best to read everything in between these periods to.\n\nSorry but some people are just idiots.

Maybe you think some people will understand you, but the question is vague enough for not to be answered...\nif you really have a question just ask it... we are all understanding!\ndon't be shy!

I think you will find that the chances of someone who has been there actually using Yahoo Answers - and even more so actually being in this group, reading at the time you posted it -- is very likely to be close to 0.

well, we do get something in return like when we ask, when we answerer's different opinion and ours might be wrong and when we vote for an undecided question. But i think most likely people come here because they are bored or lazy to do work or want to lough, that's why silly question gets more answer than a real question simply because we're not in the state of mind to think

Its more than likely to just get the points..they don't care what they are writing...I was guilty of it and still do sometimes to the really stupid questions but I try and give as best an answer as I can!

well, its yes and no....some people ask questions to pass time while others ask questions because they want answers.

Most of the answers are so TYPICAL!  I read a question and I already know what 90% of the answers will be.  I don't find it usefull.  Just entertaining.  I try to make it funny sometimes.

so that the conversation would be more interesting or so that person would neeed some attention

It's supposed to be used to rate the quality of the question or the answer, but few people actually use it for its intended purpose. So if someone disagrees with the question or answer, or if they dislike the user, they'll just give them a thumbs down, regardless of the quality of the question or answer.

People complain about your answer, so it gets pulled. The disclaimer means nothing.
