Is it me or are people getting bored with Yahoo! Answers?

The quality of questions seems to have gone down the pan recently. I'm struggling to find questions that are worth answering.

Update:

Gig you are proving my point, I don't want to answer American pub quiz trivia.

    Oh, thank you for this! I thought I was the only one struggling to find any questions worth answering. I'm tired of the same things over and over and over. The questions seem to get dumber all the time. Thanks again for such a good question!

    I am having the same struggle lately.

    However the beauty of Yahoo Answers is that you don't know what question is coming up next. I live in hope that good new stuff will show up.

    me roo, i think there are probably too many users now, alot of the same or similar questions crop up. i used to come on for a bit every day but now only come on if i am bored. Alot of the questions are repetitive and i think people are more worried about building up their points than actually using if for the purpose of looking back at past questions to find the answer. I come on to help other people and give advice, i have hardly asked any questions of my won but have alot of top answers so i must be doing something right soemwhere!!

    I think you're right. Certainly the last 10 days or so has shown really boring questions.

    If you are concerned with the quality of questions, why not ask some more yourself?

    If you're really fed up, use the Google translate tool and try the French site. They're a barrel of laughs.

    Yep, it`s getting a bit repetitive, and annoying when you try to contribute, post 4 Q`s and only 1 gets through.

    Yeah... maybe it has something to do with summer? People are bored and asking stupid questions, and giving stupid answers.

Still have questions? Get answers by asking now.
