Won't there come a time when many of the questions have already been asked or very similar questions?

Yes, but us crazy obsessed people with nothing better to do will continue to answer. In fact I think I answered this question before lol.

How many times are you going to ask this question?

I totally agree. It is nearly impossible to find questions that are a couple of days old but still open to answers, for example. It takes so long sometimes to find a question again!

Who knows? It must be so complicated that there will never\nbe a correct answer or that it will ever stop happening.\nNo one demands respect anymore I know that much.

The ratio of questions per minute is too great to start reciculating them, there's just too many. I think everyone strives for their own question to become featured, and those are usually the questions with about 100 answers.

That depends...some answers are easy and others need a real thoughful answer.  Some questions come to me easily if there's something I'm really wondering about.  It takes a bit more thought to come up with a question just for the sake of entertainment purposes.  I don't know how some people can rattle off question after question...some have 2 pages of open questions.

Yes.  The first one below has 8755 answers.\n\nHowever, it used to be that you could not have more\nthan one hundred.  See the second link for info on that.

If most of the questions are still open, be patient.  Some of my "best answers" came more than a week after answering.

Yeah,I hate when that happens...Sorry,you will have to wait tomorrow...Go and read some book,or watch TV...I don't know how else to help you.It is pretty stupid,that daily limit of answering questions.But,I suppose that if there wasn't limit,you wouldn't get off line.And the points...It would be a big number,don't you think?

Based on events, I'd say these questions need to be asked & answered again, don't you?

Its not that it was a bad question or anything like that.  If you look to see how many questions are in here you will quickly see that the questions change by the minute so its just possible that it was overlooked.  Also, time of day has a lot to do w/ it.  If you want a question answered by kids, ask it when you know a lot of kids are likely to be online and the same goes for intelligent adults.  I personally didnt see it myself.  Im on here a lot due to being on disability.

You can anticipate the quality of both the questions and the answers improving over time; partly as the "novelty" factor wears off and partly as people who aren't earning points get bored from the lack of positive feedback and go away.  At some point the "search" function of the site should become more useful than the "ask" function.  (At least, this is how I think Yahoo expects it to go.)
