Help answer this question below.

Why do people answer question with random facts (like, I don't know, but this is asked on trivia nights) rather than answering the questions (especially since those answers aren't going to get positive ratings)?

    Actually, that's why, when you ask something, there's an option: "Is this Conversational or Educational?". Pick conversational or leave empty to receive *chat* like answers. Select educational, and you get only smart answers (99% chance, when I tested).

    I have wondered that myself. The only conclusion I can come to is they must think they'll get points just for making an appearance.
