Is there a best question rating? Do you think my duck question could be in the running?

Good question.  I believe that the "best answerer" is the one who does the best job in answering your own question, and that may change from question to question.  If you receive say eight answers to a serious question, hopefully all will try to be helpful and having different views may lend depth and confidence in the best answer.  Also different and valuable sources may be provided to assist in your own further research.  The scope of questions runs the gammot from frivolous to trivia to fun to very serious as it should.  Total points and level are just frosting on the cake IMHO.  Good luck.

It depends what you ask, if you ask something funny you might get a funny answer. If you ask something serious you probably won't get much help.\nI asked a question like yours the other day and was called stupid and told to ask a real question by a lot of people, those same people don't seem to answer when I actually do ask a real question though.\nI think you should keep asking questions though, it's just a matter of the right person seeing your question and being able to help.

Yes, but don't dismiss the funny ones.  If they get your creative juices flowing, then the answers for the thought provoking ones will definitely be better. Sometimes the silly ones, actually have some heart felt answers.\n\nPersonally, I love the thought provoking questions.  They get my wheels turning and make me challenge my ideas and paradigms. Keeps me on my A thinking game.

I really think it is a nice touch when you add a response when you select the best answer. As for emailing, I don't know if that is feasible. I have enjoyed the process of answering a variety of questions, but it certainly is motivating to know that someone appreciates your time and effort \nSimilarly, I would like there to be a good way to recognize quality questions. When I look at the questions you have asked, for example, they clearly are thoughtfully phrased and thought-provoking. \nKeep it up!

Wow!  I was seriously considering asking this very question!  I'm new to Yahoo Q&A and didn't know if it's ok to vote for your own answer, or if it's a breach of some unwritten etiquette.\n\nI personally look for the best answer to the question.  Does it answer the question?  Does it consider all aspects of the question (sometimes there's more than one part)?  Is it thoughtful and sincere?  Is it respectful of others' views, even if in disagreement with them?  etc.  \n\nI have voted for my own answer in a number of cases but only because I thought my answer met the above criteria above and beyond what others have offered.  But if someone else's answer meets the criteria (even if mine does, as well), I will vote for theirs instead.  \n\nIn the event there is no "best answer," I vote for the one that makes me laugh.  : )  \n\nThanks for asking this question!  I can't wait to see what differing opinions will be!  (Plus you saved me 5 points from asking it myself!  lol)  ; ) \n\nCheers!

View the 'community guidlines' again before asking your question again... you'll be able to tell if you should ask it or not. But, you should keep in mind that even if you violate the guidlines, whether or not you get reported is ultimately up to those who come across your question(s)... it's really a gamble- not one that I'D take, but the choice is yours.

It would be hard to pick just one.  Seems like everyday the questions get worse.  I really don't think it is any one question as much as the quality of all the questions as a whole.\n\nYou asked a good question though.  God bless you.

Hi this is a place where anyone with a yahoo id can ask or answer questions.  There aer allot of people who ask silly questions ro make inappropriate remarks but for the most part allot of the question are legitimate.\nThey have allot of catagories to choose from and it can be a great source to find out something you have not been able to find out yourself.\nThe point are only a matter of getting into higher levels to have greater access to the answers section.\nCheck out their help/FAQ page for more info.

Then why bother posting a worthless question.  These types of questions weigh down the rest of the system and the good questions get buried at the bottom.  You don't want to come back?  Fine, but you don't have to waste other people's time with a dumb question.  By the way, it is "probably," not "prolly."

Trying to find a good question to answer.

I've been on here about 3 weeks, mostly answering questions. I've answered all types of questions from the serious to the seriously stupid, to the ones that made me laugh out loud. I enjoy the clever joke questions far more than I enjoy the continuously regurgitated "How much wood can a woodchuck chuck?" questions.\n\nI admire your test of the system too. I was wondering myself whether people only answer silly questions and ignore the more serious ones. So far I've only asked two question, both were basically the same question and both were serious questions. I've had exactly one response to each of the questions and one of the answers wasn't particularly nice either.\n\nMaybe I'm going about it all wrong. Maybe I should be asking if dancing nude in a store window would be an appropriate way to earn money for breast cancer?\n\nAnd yes, I think josh should be reinstated.
