Some people rush through their answers in order to rack up the points. I personally like to answer questions to the best of my ability. If I want to horse around I sometimes ask a funny and weird question.

To get opinions.... or just to feel like there are real people out there answering your questions.\n\nWhy did you ask this question?

Because there is an anonymous way to get their questions answered. Also because children are naturally curious.

There are a lot of younger ones on here that do not have the knowledge or experience to answer those kinds of question.  I have found some people here that do have the expertise for that type of question, just that they don't have the time to be on here a lot so many good question get little or no response.

On some things I think there are certain points about subjects they may not find till they've searched and searched.  They can get several answers here and compare to their own even.  HOWEVER, if you are ok to ask that kind of question..you should be ok to hear this.  Why are you asking this question, the same question that 500 people before you have also asked???  And yet we're all still here asking and answering!  Just have fun!

Yes, most of the questions could be answered by doing a search.  However, a lot of people want other peoples opinions.  They want to be able to relate to a human being rather than a machine.

I think a lot of people want to answer questions that no one is asking them.  So they create "questions" that allow them to express themselves.

I think it is because there are aprox 10,000-20,000 open questions on this site with so many subjects people don't know there question has been asked.
1067125
because there are so many people who answer questions just to be arseholes.

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.
