I am Mr. Rude. Go suck donkey nuts! HAHAHAHAA\n\nI'm just kidding. Anyways, some people are rude just to be funny. Sometimes its funny, but when you're looking for an accurate answer, you're gonna hate the guy.

It's either that, or someone is really mad at you on here and reporting you on every single question you ask. Try to keep on writing them and ask why you can't get an explanation..maybe you will have better luck than I had...lol

I don't blame you one bit for being upset. When people report a question, often there is nothing wrong with it. It is one of the problems that Yahoo needs to address. I am sorry that happened to you and hope your day improves at it goes on. I have also had the experience that you are having and it annoyed me also.  I just tell myself that the points are worth nothing now and then I calm down. Take care.

hasnt happened to me yet; people who ask questions want to hear things that they agree with, and if they dont \nAH! its the end of the world. \nbut its okay, im sure that you give fine answers, people are just wierd like that.

because some people can just be harrassing.  I have allowed people to contact me but sometimes I regret it.  Most of the time, people just want to discuss and answer or question and though they disagree- the discussions are reasonable and respectful, but I have had some that just want to send an insulting and hate filled message regarding something I said.  I generally don't answer them back but I really don't appreciate getting them- I don't treat people like that.  Some people don't want to deal with this at all and I don't blame them, it is their right to privacy and to not be harrassed.

Yes I do and I get quite angry for other people who have taken the time to ask a question and then they get bombarded by nerdish answers

Some people are overly intelligent, some are not.\nSome people seriously need an answer, then some people have a craving to see if they can get an other answer with a stupid question like yours.

Yes. once in a while when I ask a question,I will get many nice, informative answers, but there are always those few that feel the need to be rude, even when your question is serious in nature..I just try to ignore the rude ones, but yes, it does get on my nerves!!

Someone must have a grudge and are reporting your question and answers. I guess that some stupid people enjoy doing that!

That's a good question.\nMy guess is that the rude people are the ones who have way to much time on their hands and like to take it out on others. I enjoy answering questions and find that a lot of the really good answers are very helpful but then it seems that there is always a rude person who has to spoil it for everyone and give some really mean and spiteful answer just to ruin it for others.\nI wish those rude people wouldn't answer any questions at all if they don't enjoy either asking good questions or answering them. Rudeness is a sign of really bad manners and poor up-bringing too.\nMy answer may not sit well with some but I tell it like it is.

its because of thier STUPID QUESTIONS\n\nand eventually the answers will also be rude...\n\nbut if you ask a good question then answers will be OKAY..

Well i can tell you that people have no answers and there hoping you can help them with the question and get an answer i mean some people don't even know that there putting up stupid questions or they are trying to be perfect.I mean people might think that the question your asking is stupid (not saying that this question is)\nPeople just wanna have fun asking these questions and just play around.Some people just wanna be pefect.And some people really need help cause their stuck and they have no one too ask that they come to you and ask you cause they think you can help and they can trust some of you.Also to the asker the question is important to them and they really want an answer.And people say yourquestion is a stupid question don't listen too them it's not stupid it's a good piont

There are  people on here who are not really looking for answers. They are looking for other opinions on a topic.\n\nThen there are those who want to make people mad. Generally along a political or religious line.\n\nThen there are kids who are looking for a easy answer to homework questions.\n\nThen there are those who are really looking for an answer. The bad news is they don't really know if the person who gives the answer knows a damn thing. The good news is they will get a variety of answers and they don't have to use any particular one.

Not always. Some people ask questions that have facts as the answer. \n\nPeople asking opinion questions may not understand whatever situation they are in and need advice. People's answers help them make sense of the situation and may bring to their attention things they never thought of before. People go through many of the same situations and seeing how other people handle it can help out a lot.

People like answers, not questions.  Answers make sense of something unstable and bring order to that instability.  If you question something, you are doing so for your own sake, but at the same time you are necessarily (though probably not intentionally) challenging someone else's sense of stability/security (since that other person would see no reason for his/her belief system to be questioned).  You're not meaning to hurt anybody else, but it's just that too many people cannot easily face a disturbance to their beliefs; they view the one who asks the question as the problem.

One response you can give is to smile and say, "Why do you ask?"  Sometimes you can then ask them the same question they asked you.  The key is to not get upset about it.  If they were trying to annoy you on purpose, they get annoyed because you aren't annoyed.  And thus, they cannot take advantage of you.\n\nIf the asker is very sincere, a better response might be, "That's something that I don't feel comfortable answering."  They're likely to appreciate the honesty.
