The premise of Yahoo Answers was simple: ask any question you want and receive solutions from anyone in the world. “[It] likely doesn’t turn a profit … instead of spending the money necessary to moderate they just decided to close the whole thing down,” theorizies a user named Bill, who has penned 11,182 of these answers during his career on the forum.

Pretty sure no one here considers troll questions valid questions. Besides that, not moderating a forum always leads to toxic communities, trolling, and general chaos. It's not really surprising that yahoo answers turned out badly.

Bill is a relic of a dying past who will soon be forgotten.
