Why are so many questions repeated so often?
139509
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.

every1 has there own interpretation of a question so i think every1 is in a different situation when they ask a question that's why you get the same questions over and over again and millions of different answers over and over again

Why do you keep asking the same question when it's already been answered?

I read the question and look through the answers to see if there are duplicate responses.  I'll answer if I don't see any.  But I take so long to type that when I'm done, there are tons of responses that I now just give up reading the answers and just respond if I have something I'd like to add.

The only fix is to make it so when you ask a question, have yahoo automaticly search to see if other similar questions have been asked.\nIf they have, user needs to be alerted.\nA message like this might pop up.\n\nThe question you just asked appears to have been asked before (15 times).\n\nPlease click on one of these links to see if your question has already been answered.\n\nThen it should list all the similar questions in order and let them pick from the list.\n\nat or near the bottome could be the, no, THIS question has not been answered button..\n\nThis Might slow some of the idiots down.\n\nHow many times has the following question been asked...?\n\nHow many licks does it take to get to the center of a tootsie pop?\n\nAnswer, so far the question has been asked 57 times, and counting.

You need to review the guidelines.  Were you assigning your questions to the right categories?  Were you repeating the same question over and over (you are only supposed to ask a question one time)? Did you watch your language? Did you take care not to insult other people?

Because you have asked more questions than you have answered.    Try answering some more (at -6 as of this writing), you can break even with three questions answered.
