I went there once. Don't worry I washed my hands after! I wasn't there long enough to get violations...I just tossed a few answers and left.

Welcome!

Yes, I got a lot of violations for no reason, and the stupidest violations I've ever gotten was "Chatting".

G'day Aprilher,

Thank you for your question.

Yes I was on Yahoo! Answers for all of last year accumulating 47,000 points. However, I discovered Answerbag in January and switched because the people and environment at Answerbag are much better.

Yahoo! Answers is a much busier place but Answerbag is a lot friendlier.

Regards

I have never tried Yahoo Answers. From reports that I have heard, it is steadily going down the drain in terms of quality. I'll remain faithful to the 'bag

i used to a month ago..till i discovered the wonderful world of being an answerbagger..on my own accord, walked away from answers..because i felt it wasnt enriching enough..(IMO) only! i love the comments option as it allows you to chat with someone, something answers forbids members from doing too much chatting across the board. AB is my new home now.

I discovered AB when I asked a question on Answers... Someone said "According to www.answerbag.com" Subsequently I decided to check it out.
Avatar Juggernaut Mar, 07 2007 at 12:25 PM
i recommended AB to a friend of mine one day...started getting tired of the non-exsistant best answer rewards, i was stuck on level 4 for many months-then i joined AB a month later..everybody shares some points, not just one person getting best answer..i like AB's best answer odds lol

I left Yahell to come here. That site is a cesspool overrun with trolls and no customer service.
