Are the answers on yahoo answers trustworthy?

Answer 1

Sometimes. It depends on who's answering. There's some people who will be straight up honest with you and then there's smart*sses who just want a good laugh at other people's expense.

Answer 2

I suppose you have to trust you instinct. If you are asking something very personal or about health, you should consider the answers very carefully. I suppose it is like all online chats and stuff, you never know exactly what you are going to get. I would say you have a 50-50 chance of getting a trustworthy answer.

Answer 3

For opinion-based answers, that is up to the asker to determine as to how relevant and germane it is to the issue asked.

For fact-based answers, that seems to run hot and cold, especially when a person needs to know a certain movie name and you get four different titles.

Answer 4

depends on the person answering. You can look up a persons answers, it also depends on what they say to that answer. peoples answers wether on the computer or in person should be taken with a grain of salt. people can b.s. just as easy face to face as on here. I have the experiance of being lied to

Answer 5
