I'd buy a full-page ad in the New York Times showing a picture of her avatar with the title . . .YAHOO BEACHUS or YAHOO BETRAYUS !!

I really don't care. For me, this is not a race or a contest. It is a way to learn about issues, what & how others think, or refine my political views. If I think of something that might be helpful to someone or want to voice an opinion, I'll answer a question. Once in a great while I might ask one.
Actually, I kinda feel sorry for whoever it is. Staying at this site for enough time to accumulate 58,000 (by now) points means this person has no life. Gee, I resemble that remark . . .
I have even stopped reporting spammers. They get stopped by others eventually. But I sure am tempted to report John B for being an absolute jerk.

I really don't much care but I did notice her stats some months ago and looked for her answers in the political category but could never find any. I'm on here pretty much, enough to run across most of the other high rollers but I never run across her. When does she post and what names other than beachbum does she use? Odd.

I find the entire situation amusing. Most of us are aware of how she's doing it and it's hilarious. Find old questions that are ready to go into voting, leave a response. Start voting for yourself and bring out a few multiple Id's and goodness, overnight, you get several best answers and an accumulation of points. Now if you go to her 360, she has an entire segment about game pointing. Notice that this underhanded way of game pointing isn't mentioned. I guess that makes it okay? Her percentages alone, which are impossible to get without cheating, speaks for itself.
We should feel sorry for her and simply laugh at anyone who has a goal to be number one and cheat her way into getting it.

You know, now that I think about it, it does explain why some people have such HIGH numbers. I mean, day-em, those people would need to do nothing but LIVE on Yahoo Answers to get that many points. I think you should turn them in.

I would really not care. Anyone who thinks thier points score on YA is worth bragging about, let alone cheating to get, probably has even greater problems in thier real life.

I would feel sorry for anybody with such a pathetic life that they thought Yahoo Answer points actually counted for anything

I have written to Yahoo abuse about her.
I never see her answer questions yet she keeps getting Best Answer and more points.
Beach Bum is a cheater just like her idol Hillary.

Is Y/A really that serious of a thing that we should suddenly make it a priority in our lives to care what others do?
I think not.

I ignore it. I figure it's attention-seeking behavior to begin with and try to avoid giving any.
But if it bugs you, let them know you know. Of course, this person will probably delete any of your comments and twist your words around so you are the bad guy to her and her fans, so...
