Do you agree that Yahoo! Answers is a disorganized site, with awful customer service, being so limited to everything, deleting questions and banning users for no reason, and that the site is fully corrupt and a place for trolls?

Yahoo Answers Is A Fraud

I wouldn't know. I've never tried it...:-D...

I believe that it is a site run by trolls and 12year olds...yes. They need human intervention (and maybe a little divine, as well) to help them out. customer service at Yahoo answers is an oxymoron.
-
They are limited as far as I remember. You can't comment or anything. You can only ask questions and answer questions. That's pretty lame. And, they are very strict as far as what you can ask and answer with. I was banned from there a long time ago. I never stood a chance really.

I prefer our site than the yahoo answer site.
-
I agree 110%.
-
I'm pretty sure also that there is also a limited time to answer which seems silly. Maybe the original asker of the question doesn't need an answer anymore, but some questions are helpful just to share knowledge and having to start all over again for newer answers seem ridiculous. Once they "resolve" a question to get more information the question has to be started all over again. I'm sure that not every question is personal "vital" question that is solved by maybe 10 answers, of which the favorite one is voted on and becomes the "official" answer with other answers listed below.

No I do not agree.

Y/A is a complete joke. I've yet to have my account actually suspended, but I was the target of trolls/clones all of the time there. I got false abuse reports and violation notices all of the time. why? because Y/A doesn't care. Someone decides they don't like you (a troll) for whatever reason...your politics, your sexual orientation, your cultural background, your race or religion, and they attack and abuse you in the forums and send false reports and try (and sometimes succeed) and getting so many innocent people suspended. There is no such thing as customer service on that site. And, I like AB so much more anyway....not just because there is actual customer service. Questions can stay open instead of requiring being "resolved." You can comment and post pictures and videos here. In Y/A, you can only ask/answer a question. And you same the same juvenile crap all of the time. It's a trolls paradise there.

I don't know anything about YA except what Baggers have said. I found AB before I heard of YA. Never had any inclination to check out YA.
-
Yes, but I also believe the site serves it's purpose. If I have a question that is obscure, it's almost always answer on YA.
-
The customer service there is NOT awful, okay? It's non-existent. I complained several times and I never received any reply (aside from the system-generated replies that don't answer my questions). I left it because I was punished with Error 999 for no apparent reason.

Yahoo! Answers is infested and run by millions of drunken lemurs who have all the time to make corrupted decisions against innocent users and none of the talent to serve them better. The talented people on Answerbag need not waste their time with Yahoo! Answers.
-
Well, I don't really think its disorganized, but I do think its unfair. And a lot of people get away with a lot of crude behavior. I received violations when I had just annoyed someone, not really done anything wrong. I got sick of it. Oh..and the trolls are crazy-all-over-the place! My husband answers on football all the time and he gets suggestive comments from females all the time.

They are extremely corrupt. The problem I believe is they dont approve several subjects that do not match their opinion, or the big babies who come on and complain agianst anything they dont agree with. But yes, you are correct. I personally dont think they spend anytime trying to improve the site, probably searching for "Violations", and deleting stuff they dont like, or the "YA pets" dont like. They are going to fail, and really messed up. Plus, whats also bad, is people on this website are extremely rude, judgmental, critical, close minded and uneducated. The trash they post on this website have turned away all the good people who used to actually do good for the site.
-
I agree. I am almost ashamed to admit that I would frequent YA before I found AB. I am so glad I did find this site where the people are fun, you can ask silly questions and even chat. At YA "chatting" is against the rules and I received a violation email for asking a question on there that was considered "chatting"
-
I have used both & the people at Ab have it together compared to yahoo. Yes, we meet some that are a little rude or take away points but we all try to live by a certain code here in my opinion. We all try to agree to disagree. I like this site so much more & just because people don't always find my answers or questions wonderful at least i know their honest.

You are SO Not kidding. I've lost a Level 7 account there before and I'd be the number one answered in the Rock & Pop Section right now if it wasn't for yahoo lackadaisical failing to keep the damn Trolls in check.
