    I say what I feel, because I have gone through a lot and am still..

    Probably the reason why I take a long time to answer and why almost all my answers are very long.

    I also pay attention to my language.

    I want my answers to help not only the people who ask them, but also people who read them.

    The points that come are just incidental.

    I'm always honest with what I write. People are asking questions, looking for honest input. So why bother answering just for points?

    I say what I think and get picked for best answer a lot. I think people appreciate the truth over trying to pacify them. They can go to their friends for that. On yahoo your going to get mostly honest answers I think.

    sometimes I just answer crazy because the question is really stupid. but for the most part I answer what I really think. I have answered alot of Questions I have only been choosen once as best answer. so I don't think people like my answers either. but I don't really care if they do or not

    I say what I think, sure I will like to get ten points for every answer (like this one) but honesty first.

    I answer honestly and I hope that others too. If it would be like that what would be the point? There are other sites for fun.

    i say exactly if the real person ask the question in person. this is just my opinion and sometimes it'll sting if i don't like the asker.
