Formally a very good website but it has gone totally to shit.

Whoever owns the website has obviously gave up maintaining it.

False reporting runs VERY FREQUENT, especially in the Others-Cultures&Groups and Polls&Survey area. When you appeal a report then you NEVER get a response back on whether it was appealed or not (you used to get a response within a couple days).

Plus, there are constantly glitches on the site (a new unique crazy glitch every time), those are eventually fixed after the site not working properly for days after each new glitch pops up.

It's just trash now and a lot of people are leaving it
Yahoo Answers needs to get their fucking act together because people are leaving, including me. If their too fucking lazy to give a shit then at least sell the site to somebody who will give it attention. Damn shame.

Regular Answer: It's okay.
Myspace Answer: It's alright dude, you do whatever the fuck you want because you are your own person and no one owns you.

Site where some people come to ask serious questions and where some come to troll. Here are the types of people on this site.

Spammers: People who spam links to other websites.

Teenage girls: Most of them ask stupid questions.

Teenage guys: Most of them give stupid answers.

Trolls: Most ask racist questions.

Angry young women: Annoying people who rant at you for asking a reasonable question.

Angry young men: Annoying people who find it necessary to ask you a question in your question. (even if it has nothing to do with your question)

Creepy men: Most have the avatar with the guys that have squinty eyes and long hair and a big smile. They say perverted things to you.

People who shouldn't answer: People who answer for the points. They say things like "I'd like to know that too" or "I don't know"

People who don't answer/read the question (self explanatory.)

Then there are normal people

There is NO WAY to appeal to a report you get in your inbox, and so the only way to not get reported for sure is to not say anything at all.

PS- it is also funny as hell to get some idiot's account deleted.
