The answers are really irritating. And irrelevant.
Why don't they click on the United States site? The list of countries is at the bottom of the page!

If you go to the Yahoo.com site then goto Answers the default setting is all English questions, unlike the UK site which has questions from the UK and Ireland as the default setting. raise the issue with yahoo on the forum if you wish.

All the English written questions go to the same site. This question is on the United States site, call it a glitch.

In the past I have answered questions from folks in the U.K., that are on the American site, to the best of my ability and even gotten a few new friends from your area of the world. I have yet to get on the U.K. site.
I don't pretend to know you or your country but sure would like to. I have enough trouble trying to understand my own country men let alone others from around the world.
Sorry you have gotten irritating and irrelevant answers from others but a good way to correct folks is to inform them.
The United States has its share of problems too-including folks that think their way is best. I personility feel we all should try to get to know folks from other areas on our little orb before we condemn the whole country.

I agree that they can be very close minded to the fact that there are people here from all over the world. They own it as they own the world. The fact is, they probably don't even think about it. Don't hate me for this, but I'm from NZ. I enjoy the fact that I can answer people's questions from the opposite side of the world but I do always keep in mind the cultural and geographical differences. You get used to it.

Because its accessible to them!! There is nothing in the "rule book" which say's they cannot answer questions on the UK site!! Perhaps they find some British answers irritating! I myself tend to "flick between,All English/UK and Ireland. Does it really matter. Why not just skip the questions and answers you do not like. Show a little kindness!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why does this bother you so? Don't like Yanks, or what?
I clicked on "all English answers" and Yahoo brought me here. And I like to see what the differences are between our two contries. Widens my view of the world.

When they set up YA, Americans have the choice of US Questions or All English Language Questions. Some of them like to practice their foreign languages.

Well we can answer on any site we want. We are Americans and we do what we want when we want and how we want. Who made you guys God? Since do people need to be excluded from answering in certain sections?? That's why no one likes you stupid British people. Arrogant, conceited and closed minded as hell.

I don't mind if the Americans answer my questions. Of course, some things are irrelevant, but it is nice to have the point of view from our friends from across the Atlantic.

Boo! That's so sad. The point of this site is to ANSWER questions. If you know the answer then what does it matter which country the question came from. You should start your own site for just folks from the UK.
