Has there been a decline in intelligent questions?

Question

Or am I just getting bored?

Answer 1

A serious decline, in both intelligent questions, AND answers.

Answer 2

I agree with whoever said, It's just the same questions being asked over again. You're getting bored, I just don't care. As someone of with a belief system, nothing I say is considered intelligent, because I have faith in something that can't be explained by science and mans facts.

Answer 3

Yes, there has been a decline in finding intelligent questions. And the spelling has gotten so bad I can't even read them.
I hope when the teens go back to school things will get better.
You might be bored because there are almost no good questions here now.

Answer 4

No...There hasn't been a decline.
Do you understand what permutations are. (The number of all possible combinations between any given number of things.)
I've been a musician for 25 years now...I haven't played all the chord or note combinations posssible to play, but I "Have" played almost all of the ones that sound great for "Rock" music...

You haven't read ALL the intelligent questions possible...but you "Have" read most of the intelligent questions that stimulate YOUR particular brain...and there's a finite amount of those...so you're exhausting your intelligent question personal permutation...you running out of that finite amount of things your brain considers "up there..."
To some people on here, a cooking question is an intelligent question, or how to fix your car, but they, too, will soon run out if they play this game long enough.
That's what boredom is...you've been there, done that, and now have started to go there and do that again...
Now it's just a matter of re-hash, re-do, re-examine, re-negotiate, re-think, re-cap, re-up, return, repo, re-re, and re-live...

Welcome to the end of the intellectual road...now you have to hack your way through the jungle again until you reach the end of the intellectual road coming toward you through the jungle on the other side, and then re-trace your steps...

The first thing a mountain climber does when he or she gets to the top of Mt.Everest...

Is start back down again...

Answer 5

i never noticed any increase or decline in intelligent qns, cos i havent been on YA for that long.

but seriously, some questions are just really dumb. and yet some are intelligent. hahaa. look at my Q and answer the one that has the least answers currently..

Answer 6

Check out my last 3 questions. They are the same question.
I had to ask an intelligent question 3 times to get stupid answers topped with insults from christians. I'm getting bored because of of such lame and incoherent answers.

Answer 7

Any group activity can only move at the pace of the slowest.


If you're surrounded by total idiots for too long, you start noticing the futility of asking intelligent questions.

Answer 8

Most askers believe that they are asking intelligent questions. There are more than 2,000 questions online and it is up to you to answer those ones which you personally believe are intelligent.

Answer 9

There have been a huge number of accounts disappear and a lot of the best never returned. There is also, like another person above pointed, out more idiots than ever. It is getting to the point that it is not even worth fishing in this hole.

Answer 10

Probably both. There has been a lot of troll type junk on here lately. I've stopped posting serious questions and now ask silly questions with some seriousness behind them if you read between the lines.
