I often wondered that myself, and then came to realize that Yahoo Answers doesn't monitor or screen the kind of material they allow on here. I was once an expert on another similar site a few years ago, and they were very strict about rules. There could be no profanity, no insults, no defamation of character, and questions had to be legitimate questions -- no playing around, no solicitation and no using the site as a chat room. One infraction and you were warned; two infractions and you were ousted. That's a far cry from the way it is on here. Anything goes on Yahoo Answers; name-calling, swearing, insulting, sexually explicit questions -- you name it. Also, I am appalled, not only by the lack of good manners, but by the fact that the participants on this site -- not all, but a clear majority -- haven't the slightest knowledge of spelling, sentence structure, punctuation, grammar, or any of the basics of readable English. I think the whole operation should be revamped. However, I stay on because there are some folks who really need help, and deserve a lot better than some of what they get here. There are some sincere folks who do provide helpful answers. I feel that those people are worth my time and efforts. Thanks for writing.

i've got confidence in a single's attitude of the question. despite if that's a authentic question, it advantages an stunning style of reflecting as a thank you to furnish a appropriate answer. human beings ask because of the fact they do now no longer understand the respond and getting strategies is one way of resolving what one does now no longer understand. What seems stupid, possibly for others this isn't any longer. often times we get so concentrated on the question indepth that we forget approximately to seek for the outdoors for the respond

Simply because the stupid people of the world far outnumber the intellectual.
