Just let it set for a few days.  A lot of people look to answer questions in certain categories, so be patient, as you don't always get instant answers in here.

I am going to post a link to an answer to this question that was posted a while back. Unfortunately the answerer's id is not attached to it any longer, so I don't know who said this. But I think it was the best answer.\n\n(Why does this question keep popping up every so often?)\n\nhttp://answers.yahoo.com/question/;_ylt=AqZUtxQCjLDBtR6sL4AJmrwjzKIX?qid=1006020801001

I love answering questions, mainly because it makes me fel like my opinion matters. And even if no one reads my answer, or my answer isn't picked as the best (which i really like), then at least i have tricked myself into thinking that what i am typing in my answer counts on some level. Is it boredom, a need for recognition, a desire to be heard?! All the above!

There are a lot of people on this board and sometimes a question may get overlooked.  Just keep asking and someone will answer.  Maybe you are not catergorizing your questions right.

Why do some questions not have answers? I guess that is what you mean. I went to answer one just a minute ago and it said I need help with my geometry but that was all it said. Now how can you answer that. If the question is really vulgar I don't answer them I figure someone will.

Why do I answer so many unimportant questions?\nIt's all just for fun,don't worry about the importance of questions or answers.

It depends on what time of day you post.  If you post in the morning or afternoon a lot of times you'll get better answers.  Also, some people try to get stuff in really fast to get points.  The more thought out answers take time to write so they end up after the quick ones.

Maybe it is because you do not give in depth answers?\n\nThis is one of your responses, " Four organic oils.\nCheck my other answers for the answer,I love to help but Im sick of typing"\n\nPerhaps you should only answer questions when you feel you can \ngive enough time to get across to others what you believe is the best you can give.

Because after your question sits with only 2 answers for 2 or 3 day, you figure, well that question is history.. lost among the other 87212 questions out there.. so we give a best answer and move on.  And if we wait more than 4 days, we have seen SO many questions and judged SO many answers, we forget we even asked a question of our own, then I'll think of a new question, and forget to judge the other one, and it pops back into memory 7 days later with the same amount of answers, so I judge what I have already seen a few times, and held out for nothing.\n\nI have 2 q's I asked this morning.. one was just BS to see how many responses I got, another was a personal poll of how everyone else does things..BOTH are stagnant as of noon today.. "totalled out at 6 and 14 answers.. currently".. I may keep them a day or two more.

With the questions I've asked, I have recieved answers almost immediately. I usually leave mine open to answers for a few days until I find an answer that I like the best. When someone answers your question, you will get a notification in your e-mail telling you that someone has answered your question.

I went into the forum and there are alot of people complaining because their questions are not coming up.  Some of them are losing points some how, 1 person ended up with like 3000 points and said that they hadn't even come close to earning that many.  Others are not getting their points for answering questions.  Apparently they change the program or some darn thing (on the 15th) and they are still working the bugs out.  I was having a rough time trying to answer questions because the answer box wasn't coming up for me.\n\nHope this answers your questions.  They are supposed to be working on all the problems.  lol

Well...that is someting because I asked a serious question yesterday and I only got one answer.....I guess for some reason people think that getting points is such a reward rather than answering a question to help someone else....since points mean ALOT......I'll take 10!!!!  Thank You!!   :)))
