Why is it that when I seek the "Engineering" questions, I get at most a very few recent ones, and then questions that are several days old?

    Right now there is something very much wrong with many questions not showing even refreshing the page. Started days ago and has gotten worse..

    It may be yahoo was working behind the scenes and caused a new glitch, so we might have this happening until they get around to fixing it..

    The Yahoo tech team fixes things in their own unique way and time.

    There are no signs they are working on fixing things and no comment on the forum from them.

    Today questions go from minutes ago to 5 days ago.

    Once you get past the get 'Your criteria doesn't match any questions' notice Questions are jumping from hours ago to 2 .. 3 or 4 days ago so many are not being seen at all..

    There are hours of questions missing. Refreshing does not fix it, they just disappear off the list.

    Yours can be seen now but in an while will be gone but still show on your list.

    There is a Bug Report on the forum, so we shall see if they see it and fix whatever is wrong, nothing else we can do. https://yahoo.uservoice.com/forums/211240-us-answe...

    This is happening in many of the different sections, not just in Engineering. This site has been glitching pretty bad for about 6 days now. I hope this problem gets fixed soon.

    Possibly because people with Engineering questions choose an engineering oriented website, rather than ask the many trolls on here.
