Yahoo Answers need to be revised...Do you agree or disagree?
Points are the same for "Best Answer." Somehow it does not seem fair that if your answer is the best out of 25 answers and someone else has the best answer out of 2 answers that you get the same amount of points. Points should be rewarded based on the number of responses that a question receives. Also, more points should be rewarded if the answer is chosen by the asker rather than by the voters, because if you vote for your own answer and on one else votes... you get the same amout of points.

I find I only get 5 points if I vote for best answer to my questions. Yet Yahoo says one
gets 10 points for best answer.. Do I lose 5 because I vote for best answers on my questions? How does one get the full 10 points? is it by voting best answers to others questions? I don't know if I agree with your way to revise things but I do agree yahoo does
need to be revised!

I think the point system is fair enough but when scrolling through the questions you get the same ones coming up page after page so you never see all the questions. Also some of the categories need to be divided better so as to separate people who just want to play and people with a serious question.
