I am new to "Answers". I think "Answers" has only been operating for a little over a year. One of "Answers" top contributors is Judas Rabbi (or something like that). He has already got 300,000 or more "points" and a "Best Answer" score of about 5%
Given that you get an "average" of (say) 3 points per answer (and that might be a little excessive - because he obviously didn't score too many "10-pointers"), it means that he has answered (about) 100,000 questions in 365 days (I think his profile says he started with "Answers" in April 2006). That would be 100 questions a day EVERY day for a year. I've tried to emulate that figure in the last two weeks - and it takes me the best part of a whole day, just to go through 80-odd questions. So, would Judas Rabbi be otherwise unemployed? Would he be obsessive/compulsive with his computer? Does he go and actually talk to REAL people? Does he put in "one word" answers? What motivates a person to do this? Does he have a real life?

Remember, you get two points for answers, not necessarily for good answers. Looking at his answers, a lot of them are three-word replies.

He has actually answered over 93,000 questions, which is around 250 a day. But if you look at his profile, he primarily answers in Polls and Surveys. Such questions can take less than a minute to answer, so it wouldn't take more than four or five hours a day. Try it yourself. Just answer every poll and survey question that comes up. See how many you can answer in a day. A lot more than 80, I would guess.
As far as his motivation, who knows. You could do a lot worse with your spare time. Lots of people probably watch that much TV in a day. You could still have a "life" outside of Yahoo Answers. Or not. To each his own...

Well I would like to clarify that you got 2 point by answering a question .BUT, you get 10 oints by being chosen as a best answer by the asker.And you get 12 points by being chosen as a best answer by voting:)

Hope my answer has helped.

He could have a veeeeery boring job with little to do most of the work day (like me). Or just no life.
