What the hell is the point of this?  Most answers will be just some jerks opinion.?

The point is to try and get the most points.  I really don't care if any of my answers help anybody because I just want the points.  I guess that makes me a jerk but guess what?  I just got 2 points so suck a d1ck.

I don't know, why are they doing that?\n\n*laughs*\n\nSome people just answer questions to get the points, and really do not care anout helping people out.  I see a lot of answers like that around here.

If you want a competant answer, ask a well-thought-out question.  Some of the "questions" people are asking here are RITRADOED oh, I mean RETARDED.

I've seen some abusive answers and questions, it's expected due to this online open answer and question forum.  Don't take offense to any answer, people are just sharing their opinions.  Don't give them any of your personal information, be careful and just don't give them the time of day.

Now... I notice that some idiot (male or female, same thing) gave this question a "thumbs down"... you gotta wonder about the IQ of some people here, and basically it gives you your answer, friends? here? gawd... the question is not rude, has relevance, does not contain bad language... so I wonder why the "thumbs down"? Not that it matters, Lady didn't "lose" anything but it should answer her question. Whoever clicked the thumbs down should shut the PC down, go outside and have a life, appreciate the beauty of life instead of spreading negativism. Jesus! who would want to make "friends" with that? Going to Starbucks.\n\nP.S: I don't doubt that it could be possible to "make friends" with some people here but you have to admit that it is unlikely, real contact in real life cannot be beat. For those lucky ones that have made friends with some people here, good for you! At least THAT is positive. :-)\n\nP.P.S: See? Proved my point, I got a thumbs down! LMAO... some young kid who thinks he has POWER! Cuz at home Momma runs his life and he is powerless. What a feeling huh?:-)

Let's see, how many idiots are there on Yahoo Answers answering questions they know nothing about and asking really stupid questions (hmm?)? Do you really care? If it bothers you, you can always add a your own answer or vote or comment on the best answer when voting's over. But if it bothers you enough that you want to essentially spam everyone with it, then Yahoo Answers probably is not the place for you - we don't even get paid, who says they expect fully accurate and thoughtful information?\n\nOtherwise, you're just making a big deal out of something you don't even consider that important (in which case I'll take a couple points). If that's the case, you are lying, which is just as bad as what you're complaining about.\nOr do you just like the attention?

Whoah, are you trying to state obvious rightous comments on this thing. You do know a buch of people with bad opinions will answer. But its nice to see someone with an understanding of how things are.

Very good point, I couldnt' agree more.\n\nDon't you just hate people who leave stupid answers to honest questions......see your first reply.\n\nPerhaps the moderators could hold a members' survey ????

Some people find humor in it. Some people resort to Yahoo! answers as an alternative to boredom (and they aren't the kind of people desired here). Some people are naturally vulgar and deliberate, along with obnoxious. I honestly don't understand it, and, furthermore, I recently stooped down to that level (although I regret it now).

I'm afraid a lot of people just want to answer silly questions with a single word answer (yes or no) - They get their buz from getting loads of points not from helping people! Sorry rant over!!

Some people are not here for answers, they're here to have their own personal opinions validated.\n\nThat's not what this website is for.

Yes, every once and a while you will see some random statements on the question board directed at someones response. Ive looked back at a few profiles and followed their questions and sure enough some jerk was answering every question with horrid comments. The good thing is that I think the Yahoo Answers Team is on the case. I know that if I see any more of them they will get filed for abuse before this gets so bad that Yahoo has to push a bunch of restrictions on the rest of us to control a few twisted morons. Check out the letter board, there are some interesting comments on there. Great Question you definitely hit the nail on the head with the tolerance. You shouldn't be beaten up at every turn for you opinion. Best Wishes! J

It's a little pointless and egotistical to do so. The idea of this site is that we collect information from various viewpoints, and then allow others to judge the value of the content.\n\nVoting for your own answer defeats the purpose, so certainly is unethical. It's most likely against Yahoo!'s rules too.\n\nI can't imagine how anyone can feel they've 'won' by voting on their own answers - it seems SO childish. There are no prizes and no bragging rights here - we're all just trying to share our experience and information.

I just like helping people.  But, for others, if it drives them to provide good answers and participate in (and improve) the community I don't see the harm in it.  It is ashame when I see people answering questions with "I don't know" type answers just to get two points, but that is only because it harms the community and I see this as a great resource.

ok your on here asking questions, you expect an answer, so ppl are trying to be nice and give you advice. Maybe you should refrain from asking question since all those that are trying to help you are in return being referred to as hoe's! The object of this is to recieve points is it not I am sure when ppl answer your shit they are think damn what a waste of space!
