I am curious....what do you think the average age of the answerers on this site are????

I'm 16 years old.  Glad to know that not everyone blames the more idiotic questions on this site exclusively on the younger set.

Firstly, when did Yahoo! Answers ever claim to be "a think tank for intellectuals ... creating solutions to the problems of the world"? I'm not sure what you expect from Yahoo! Answers, but you should either lower your expectations a little, or join a Miss Universe pageant (these people always dream of changing the world, so you’ll be right at home with them).\n\nSecondly, what you consider to be a trivial question may not necessarily be so for another. For example, I considered this previous question of yours to be fairly inane:  “Are you worried about 06/06/06? Say it in German and you'll be happy!?”. Of course, this is simply my opinion, and this question may be considered perceptive and enlightening to somebody else.\n\nThirdly, it is foolish to imply that those of a younger age group have no capacity for serious thought. Further, it does not immediately follow that those of a more senior age have a monopoly on thought provoking discussion. There have been countless times where I have read an incredibly vapid question asked by a supposedly mature adult. Example: refer to the quoted question in my second point.\n\nFourthly, while you despair of the quality of questions asked in this service, perhaps you should review how you might have contributed to these apparently low standards. Example: refer to the quoted question in my second point.

It depends on which side of the coin they are some are here just to kill time and get out their boredom indeed may not take things seriously , I would say just like there are answers like those there are questions who merely deserve nothing but those answers,Lots of ppl don´t even read the details, or read just so fast to move onto the next question  to gain 2 more points that completely missunderstand it.Some ppl have missed the main purpouse of this website by just wanting to gain points so is life huh? =)

Kids aren't supposed to be on here under the age of 13 without an adult . This doesn't work though because parents aren't around to watch them . There are a lot of young people on here and I wish they would have two sites , one for them and one for us older folks . Maybe we need to start a petition ,we did it for another problem and they are working on that . I would sign it for sure .

I'm sorry to say that you can't know for sure.  There are some very intelligent people on here,and unfortunately some really immature ones.  So you be the judge of the answers you get.

I agree - there seems to be a delay in the posting, but I'm sure you're right- I always think I'm the "first" to answer someone's "difficult" question and then all of a sudden there are 10 answers. I just answered one and it still isn't showing up as answered.

Yesssss. they are professional here, but how do you know who is who?  This site is new and still experimental, and I know of no others who have professionals answering questions to the public.\nBut some think that I am just an uneducated dumb old fart so what does this answer matter.

LOL......well you do get the occasional wacko answer for sure. But for the most part its not too hard to just graze over the "babble" to find the "meat." I do understand your question though. Without any criticism to those on here that I know are much younger than myself, but I have a feeling they probably don't enjoy my questions any more than I can relate to some of the questions they ask. You are probably onto something. Having age categories might help us all weed through to find the type of questions we feel we can appropriately answer. I like it! Hopefully someone will read your question and take some action. Yay for you!

Great Q,,,thank you so much. I came here initially to learn, teach, advise, help, and fit into something with more possible, hoped for, value than a usual chat room.  I still follow that premise,,,although admittedly, I do on occassion add insult to inane questions asked.\n\n   That said however. I have researched this "forum" and find that statistically, the majority of visitors are young, some seeking attention, some very needy, some who just want to share or vent,,,but in general,,,no one should have to endure people who come here to taunt, insult, defame,,,others. It is however,,,PUBLIC.\n\n    I suggest to you, that in your greatest freedom,,,that being CHOICE,,,you disregard IQ's that seem to be 80 or less. Comments or answers, that are only here to PLAY, and just focus on any and all experiences, in any category that enlighten you, in a way you wish that to be the case.\n\n    The situation is like this. We come here, perhaps wanting some definitive, honest, decent answers,,, OR offer them,,,while at the same time having an  audience of Multiple Millions,,,who may not be here for the same reasons.\n\n    Certainly I respect many who have Q's that seem inane to me, but might be critical to them,,, IE: MY B Friend is with someone else,,,,What do I do?"   In my case, I pass them over, most often, because, very likely, I cannot truly offer anything that might actually resolve their issue, though to them, it may be VERY valid.\n\nRev. Steven

Let me say this.You have more skill as a writer than most I have seen on this site.I'm amazed at some of the horrific spelling and uneven writing tendencies on here.You are quite well-written.You make your thoughts known clearly and precisely.Please don't take this negatively,but for your age you have quite the vocabulary.I have been on this site for about a month and really enjoy it.Feel free to check my posts and give me some feedback.I'm 44,but I still like perspectives from all ages.Peace.

Yeah i think there are a lot of immature people that come here on Yahoo answers but then again there are a lot of mature people like ourselves as well so stupid questions like that will occur from time to time and i usually just ignore them cuz clearly i can see that the person who asked that is young and immature.

Does it make sense to you to have teens (who need answers) asking other teens (of whom very few know the REAL answers)  about important and sometimes very very serious issues?  That is why it is good that adults also use Yahoo answer.  And it is good to have people of all ages and experience sharing with each other and asking/answering questions.  If you feel that this is a teen site, i beleive you are mistaken.

man do i agree, I'm 58 and  although Ive gotten some savy responses from you younger folk , most of the time i"m not sure if my responders even have a clue as to what I'm asking do to their poor reading comprehension. for example above me is  "Young hot scank"'s   non responsive reply... who needs that ?? totally childish remark , yeah maybe you misspelled a word, but your question was quite clear.

I think it all depends on the question you are looking at.  I think about 75% of the questions asked on this site are written by 13 year olds.  \n\nAlso, keep in mind that this is an international forum and there are many people here, who do not speak English as their first language.

It seems a good no. of them are under 18. It is not just about the writing skills - if you observe the questions asked, a majority of them require answers which are useful only in schools. Further the phrasing of quite a lot of questions - just normal text book questions! Then there are hundreds of teenagers questions - romance, thier fears, insecurities etc. I wouldn't say 99% are under 18, but a good majority, may be around 70% are definitely under 18.
