ok u guys don't get me. not copy and paste from the internet, but from an answer that has already been asked. for example. i ask "how do i get rid of a headache" and someone googles other similar questions ON YAHOO ANSWERS and then picks an answer that soemone else answered. not from the web guys!!

You want originality, ask for it.

I guess you can Google it or something... but then again, why would it matter as long as you have an answer to your question, right? Copying and pasting took some effort too... like looking for that article to copy and paste for example... So just appreciate the time the person put into giving you a reasonable answer--or would you rather the one-sentence answers begging you to give them the points?

If the asnwer is really long, 9 out of 10 times is a copy and paste job.

I've got a better question for you...

If it's a answer to a question that someone else has ASKED and had ANSWERED...

Why did you not find it? Did you ask, before seeing if your question has already been asked?

You could highlight their answer and then paste it into the Google box. If it's on another Web page, it should show up.

Cut and paste answers bug me, too.

Good luck on finding the answer to this question

Why would you have a question that already had an answer posted?

And, You can't tell unless you are really THAT worried about it and look hard enough.

you can't.

BTW... I have seen the same question asked by someone else.

Am I going to ask why dont people look for similiar questions that are close to theirs when it pops up prior to submitting it ?

Why does it matter, if the answer is the best answer, and you got the information that you needed, why would it matter where or how you got the answer! Just Curious!?!?!?

because when someone pastes stuff it remains sticky for a while and copies usually have streaks unless you go to KInkos
